About this listen

The Sunday Times bestselling new fantasy from Kathryn Purdie, breathing new life into fairy tales with dark and deadly twists …

‘Sharp as teeth and full of heart. I devoured every word’ Rebecca Ross, internationally bestselling author of Divine Rivals

ONCE UPON A TIME, villagers would whisper their desires to the Book of Fortunes, and its pages would reveal how to obtain them. All was well until someone used the book for evil. Afterward, the branches of the Forest Grimm snatched the book away and the village withered. The villagers tried to make amends with the forest, but every time someone crossed its border, they never returned.

Despite the warning from her fortune-teller grandmother, Clara embarks on the journey into the deadly forest to reverse the curse and save her mother and village. Clara’s friend Axel puts aside his longing for her and joins the journey – the young travellers have set their minds to defying fate and daring to accomplish what no one else has been able to before.

Alas, the forest has a mind of its own …

A dark and sparkling tale of romance, courage and magic. Perfect for fans of Holly Black, Leigh Bardugo and Hannah Kaner

‘A story that will change everything you thought you knew about fairy tales’

Tricia Levenseller, internationally bestselling author of Blade of Secrets

Critic Reviews

"Kathryn Purdie has bewitched us... Her prose is lovely, evocative, and snaring, and the gripping story of danger enraptures both heart and mind. She takes well-known fairy tales and puts clever, dark twists to them, all amid a real and enchanting setting. I'll go mad waiting for the sequel!" –Charlie N. Holmberg, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Spellbreaker and The Paper Magician

"Fast-paced and romantic, Kathryn Purdie lured me into a thrilling world where familiar fairytales are turned inside out and nothing is at seems. Once I entered the dark heart of the Forest Grimm, I never wanted to leave." –Mara Rutherford, author of The Poison Season
