Sher Lee’s Legend of the White Snake, is a lush, queer romantasy retelling of the traditional Chinese folktale. Gorgeous cover design by Kuri Huang.

When Prince Xian was a boy, a white snake bit his mother and condemned her to a slow, painful death. The only known cure is an antidote created from the rare white snake itself. Desperate, Xian is determined to capture one and cure his mother.

Soon, Xian encounters an enigmatic but beautiful stable boy named Zhen, and the two are immediately drawn to each other. But Zhen might just be the human embodiment of the white snake Xian is hunting, and as their feelings grow deeper, will the truth about Zhen’s identity tear them apart?
