Youth Advisory Council Recommendation: Wish of the Wicked

Wish of the Wicked by Danielle Paige

“I really enjoyed this book! It was the perfect mix of fantasy, adventure, plus some romance. The plot moved nicely; not too slow or fast. The characters and writing were very versatile as well. Would definitely read again." — Audrey S., age 13

Everyone knows a fairy godmother helped Cinderella get to the ball. But no one knows why.

For centuries, Farrow’s family has used their magic to guide the Queendom. Until the new queen outlaws magic and executes them all. Only Farrow manages to survive, but her magic is left warped: she can now only use it to fill the wishes of others.

Farrow dreams of nothing but revenge. The best way to reach the queen is through her son, who is nearing the age when he will need a bride. But the closer Farrow gets to the prince, the more she finds herself drawn to him. To reclaim her magic and destroy the queen, Farrow will have to question what—and who—she’s willing to sacrifice.

Bestselling author Danielle Paige launches a new series full of intrigue, magic, and romance, set in a lush fairy-tale inspired world.
