Summary A collection of twelve fairy tales - reworked, reimagined and revolutionised for the twenty-first century by New York Times bestselling author of The School for Good and Evil.

Each twists like a spindle to reveal truths full of warning and triumph, truths that free hearts long kept tame, truths that explore life...and death. A prince has a surprising awakening. A beauty fights like a beast. A boy refuses to become prey. A path to happiness is lost... then found again. New York Times bestselling author Soman Chainani respins old tales into fresh fairy tales for a new era and creates a world like no other. These stories know you. They understand you. They reflect you. They are tales for our times. So read on, if you dare.
