In the latest episode of Cyn’s Workshop, we explore Sleep Like Death by Kalynn Bayron—a dark and immersive Snow White reimagining that blends fairy-tale magic with grim stakes. Princess Eve, raised and trained to be the kingdom’s savior, faces the monster known as the Knight—a being who grants wishes and twists desires into curses. As Eve approaches her seventeenth birthday, whispered secrets, magical artifacts like a seeing stone, and a mysterious messenger shatter everything she thought she knew.

Join me as we discuss how Bayron reimagines classic tropes with Black joy, found family, and complex maternal relationships, all while crafting a story that’s as emotionally resonant as it is suspenseful.
