I've had the
pleasure of listening to the audio versions of Chris
Colfer's series, Land of Stories. Colfer's blends
his characters with classic Fairy Tale characters
to create a new era of Fairy Tales. It all begins
with The Wishing Spell where we meet Snow
White and the Evil Queen in the aftermath of their
story. Each story has a different Fairy Tale character.
Colfer's characters' Alex and Connor (the twins)
are the main characters in the series.
However, in the newest
title, A
Tale of Magic...,
due out October 2019. Fourteen year old Brystal
Evergreen takes the lead. Brystal lives in the Land
of Stories. The Southern Kingdom to be exact. She
discovers magic and it changes her forever. A
Tale of Magic is a prequel to the series.
Land of Stories is
a series for all ages. It delivers an old, yet new
world in the vein of Harry
Potter, Redwall,
His Dark Materials,
etc, and like those series Land of Stories will
live on and on.
