Welcome to the wonder-filled world of the Fairytale Trilogy, where magic is far more than smoke and mirrors . . . The three novels in this book - Fairytale, The Emperor's Realm, and The Three Crowns - chronicle the adventures of Marianne and her brother Robin as they come of age in an enchanted land where frogs talk, fantastical creatures prowl, and danger doesn't stop at the edge of a dark forest. Though steeped in the tradition of classic fairy tales, The Fairytale Trilogy presents an engagingly fresh story with a modern sensibility. Fairytale, the first novel in the Trilogy, was written when the author was only sixteen years old. The story opens on the eve of Marianne's wedding to a nobleman she has never met. But after a tumble onto a dragon, Marianne and her brother Robin find themselves swept into a quest to discover the surprising truth about their family. The second novel in the Fairytale Trilogy transports Marianne and Robin halfway around the world to The Emperor's Realm, where the air is full of exotic spices and the royal palace seethes with harrowing intrigues. The Three Crowns, the final novel of the Fairytale Trilogy, unfolds against a backdrop of courtly conspiracy and dangerous destiny. As friend and foe start to seem unnervingly alike, a midnight masquerade reveals more than it conceals, and Marianne must make the choice of a lifetime.
