Book Description
Sometimes love waits a world away, and happiness must be fought for. In the year 1811, impassable barriers separate the world of carriages, battles and bonnets from the world of witches, goblins and fae. Until the Solstice comes. Then the walls fall, and anyone may pass out of England and into Aylfenhame… Three courageous heroines will take that step. Sophy Landon, impoverished and alone; Isabel Ellerby, trapped by the prospect of an unwelcome marriage; and Bessie Bell, a mistreated housemaid. But courage brings its own rewards. Curses, betrayals and a dark history may wait in the realm of the fae, but so do adventure, and magic, and dreams. And for those with heart enough, true love. These are stories of escape, of freedom, of joy snatched from the jaws of despair. They're stories of the road to happiness, winding though it may be. Of a brightness in the sky on the darkest of days, and above all: of love, and its power to change everything. This compendium contains three blissful novels of love, magic and adventure: Miss Landon and Aubranael, Miss Ellerby and the Ferryman, and Bessie Bell and the Goblin King.

Book Description
The long-vanished draykon race has been restored to the Seven Realms, and the mystery of the istore stone is resolved. But Lady Eva Glostrum returns to Glour City with many questions unanswered. Who are the enigmatic sorcerers who woke the draykon? Their powers are beyond anything she has ever known. With one dead and one vanished - literally - Eva has little to go on save a book taken from a mysterious tower in the Lowers, its cover marked with the strange word "Lokant." Llandry Sanfaer is anxious to learn more about the glorious draykoni, whose story is so inexplicably bound up with her own. But when she brings another draykon back from the Long Sleep, she finds she has made a grave mistake. Worse, a white-haired sorcerer with a talent for mind control is stalking her across the Worlds... As war builds between humankind and draykoni, Eva must uncover the identities of the sinister white-haired practitioners - and come to terms with the truth of her own heritage. And Llandry must learn why she appears to be their primary target...

Book Description
Miss Gussie Werth is the only ordinary lady in her family, without a single drop of magic to liven things up. Fortunately, she's just been abducted. Miss Gussie Werth has grown up surrounded by the most supernatural family in England. Nell talks to the dead, Lord Werth is too often found in the churchyard at the dead of night... and the less said about Lord Bedgberry, the better. Somehow, Gussie has been passed over by the family curse. She sups on chocolate, not blood; she's blissfully oblivious to spectres (except for Great-Aunt Honoria, of course); and she hasn't the smallest inclination to turn into a beast upon the full moon, and go ravening about the countryside. All things considered, her life has been unbearably placid and uninteresting. Thankfully, Gussie has just been abducted by a neighbouring family every bit as strange as her own... and as deliciously spectacular disasters start to stack up, she begins to suspect that she may not be quite as normal as she thought. Far from being ordinary, Gussie may well prove to be the worst Werth of them all… Meet the Regency-era Addams Family—full of spectres, gorgons, and polite, ravening monsters—in this fresh, absurd gothic fantasy by the author of Modern Magick and the Malykant Mysteries. "Strange and utterly delightful" (Olivia Atwater), Wyrde and Wayward's notorious House of Werth will sink its teeth into you and leave you wanting more.

Book Description
From the author of The Tales of Aylfenhame and Castle Chansany comes a cozy, uplifting, warm-hearted fantasy about found family, wholeness, and hope. ‘You may have noticed,’ said Maut, ‘that the Tree is on the move.’ On the edge of the town of Kottow stands the tallest (and oddest) Tree in the land. It’s a staid and solid arbour — until the Tree picks up its mighty old roots and wanders off, taking its resident band of misfits away with it. Whither goes the Tree? Not even the wizard can say. 'There is something mighty fey about all this, or my name ain't Diggory Stokey.' Far away from Kottow, a forest lies lost in the mists of a dream. There’s much to mend in this hoary old wood, for the Summer’s been swept from the glittering skies, and no one’s keeping an eye on the Winter... 'Enchanted forests,' Mudleaf spat. 'Bah. Like it's been raining magic this long age through.' The good folk of Kottow aren’t used to so wayward a magic — not even Maut Fey, the one with the sunlight behind her eyes. But magic will have its way with them, whether they will or no. Summertide’s waiting. Can the folk of the Tree bring it back, or will the wild magic wash them away? “If you mixed elements of the Faraway Tree, Narnia, Frozen and A Midsummer Night’s Dream together, you might get something like Summertide. Maybe.” — The Author ‘Almond tarts for her MAJESTY!’ someone else roared. ‘Apple ice-wine for her majesty!’ Praise for the Wonder Tales: “...large helpings of wit and whimsy... readers who enjoy the old-fashioned language of classic fairy tales will be pleased with this one.” - Publishers Weekly on Faerie Fruit “Her faultless prose by turns ascends with the lark, leads you down secret paths like the willow-the-wisp, bewitches you into bewilderment, and sparkles with eye-bedazzling wonder...” - NYT bestselling author Mercedes Lackey on Gloaming Don't miss the other titles in the Wonder Tales collection: Faerie Fruit Gloaming Sands and Starlight
