FIVE FAIRYTALES. NINE KINGDOMS. ONE PRINCE.

'This is not your Disney fairy tale. It is much, much better' WILDER'S BOOK REVIEW

'Brilliantly subverts the classic fairy tale' ONE CHAPTER MORE
'Loads of fun... Exposes the patriarchal, oppressive fairytale world order which we take for granted in the old yarns' THE INDEPENDENT

What if everything you thought you knew about the Grimms' fairytales was wrong?

Imagine a tower guarded by a dragon, a powerful witch, a foolhardy king, and a secret waiting to be discovered...

Welcome to the story of Rapunzel, retold as it always should have been.

Magic is the first instalment in the Tales from the Kingdoms series by the internationally bestselling creator of Netflix smash-hit Behind Her Eyes - unmissable for fans of A Dowry of Blood by ST Gibson, Belladonna by Adalyn Grace, and Gallant by V. E. Schwab.
