How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories

Once upon a time, there was a boy with a wicked tongue. Before he was a cruel prince or a wicked king, he was a faerie child with a heart of stone. This new instalment in the Folk of the Air series is a return to the heart-racing romance, danger, humour and drama that have enchanted readers everywhere. Author Holly Black takes a deeper look into the dramatic life of Elfhame's enigmatic High King, Cardan, told wholly from his perspective. Each chapter is paired with lavish and luminous full-colour art, to be enjoyed by audiences both old and new.
