So what is A World Beyond the Unknown about?
Alora is just an ordinary girl from an ordinary village—an apothecary’s apprentice trying to survive in a kingdom ravaged by plague. But when she opens a mysterious book, she’s thrust into a strange new world of magic and fairytales—a fractured empire once ruled by the fae. All she wants is to find a way home—and a cure for the sickness destroying her world.
Instead, she’s tasked with retrieving a magical grimoire for none other than Cinderella’s exacting Fae Godmother. But when Ella is kidnapped, Alora must join forces with an untrustworthy ally and embark on a perilous journey to save her friend, pull off a daring heist, and uncover the secrets that could save both worlds.
But not everyone in this fairytale is who they claim to be and Alora must decide whether to follow the story written for her—or forge one of her own.
