When Aviva Davis and Holly Martin meet at the holiday pageant tryouts for their local senior’s centre, they think they must be seeing double. While they both knew they were adopted, they had no idea they had a biological sibling, let alone an identical twin! The similarities are only skin deep, though, because while Aviva has a big personality and even bigger Broadway plans, Holly is more the quiet dreamer type who longs to become a famous author like her grandfather.

La giovane principessa Winter è molto amata dal suo popolo per la sua grazia e la sua gentilezza. E, nonostante le cicatrici che ne deturpano il volto, è considerata uno splendore dai Lunari, anche più della regina Levana, la sua matrigna. Winter, poi, disprezza la sovrana con tutta se stessa, anche perché sa che la donna non approverà mai i suoi sentimenti per il bel Jacin, amico d'infanzia nonché guardia del palazzo. Ma Winter non è la fragile creatura che Levana pensa che sia. Infatti, la ragazza ha l'occasione di privarla del suo potere.

Una fortuna sfacciata è un dono... o una maledizione?

Fino a quando, una sera, si ritrova per le mani un misterioso dado a venti facce e improvvisamente la fortuna gli arride: un suo disegno viene pubblicato dalla sua fanzine preferita, la sua amica Ari arriva alla finale di un concorso per cantautori e lui vince due biglietti per un concerto.

Das kann Königin Levana, Herrscherin des Mondes, nicht dulden: Ihre Stieftochter, Prinzessin Winter, wird täglich schöner und ihr Zauber immer mächtiger! Wütend zwingt die böse Königin sie dazu, sich das Gesicht mit Schnitten zu verunstalten – doch die Narben können Winters Schönheit nichts anhaben.

Da taucht plötzlich das Raumschiff von Cinder bei ihr auf, die ihr zur Flucht verhilft.

Fantasy icon Jane Yolen is adored by generations of readers and listeners of all ages. Now she triumphantly returns with this inspired gathering of fractured fairy tales and legends.

Cinder et le capitaine Thorne se sont enfuis aux côtés de Scarlet et de Loup. Le groupe rebelle projette de renverser la reine Levana et son armée.

Malheureusement, la reine Levana a d'autres projets pour elle, et libérer la jeune fille pourrait bien leur coûter cher. Traduit de l'anglais (États-Unis) par Guillaume Fournier.
