Turn the page, and step into a stunning, evocative world where nature, magic, and fate are inextricably linked, and one wrong—or right—step can take you from the modern world into one filled with both danger and wonder.

Fully illustrated by Bonnie Helen Hawkins, with a brand new introduction by the author and three original short stories, this is a landmark collection which gloriously reimagines traditional British folktales into timely, relevant, and powerful new stories.
