'This is not your Disney fairy tale. It is much, much better' WILDER'S BOOK REVIEW

'Brilliantly subverts the classic fairy tale' ONE CHAPTER MORE
'Loads of fun... Exposes the patriarchal, oppressive fairytale world order which we take for granted in the old yarns' THE INDEPENDENT

What if everything you thought you knew about the Grimms' fairytales was wrong?

Imagine a castle lost to history, a brave prince, a beautiful princess, and a curse waiting to be broken...

Welcome to the story of Sleeping Beauty, retold as it always should have been.

Beauty is the second instalment in the Tales from the Kingdoms series by the internationally bestselling creator of Netflix smash-hit Behind Her Eyes - unmissable for fans of A Dowry of Blood by ST Gibson, Belladonna by Adalyn Grace, and Gallant by V. E. Schwab.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
