Seasons of Magic Volume 1
The heat of summer, the colors of fall, the chill of winter, and the fresh breath of spring... This collection combines the first year of the Seasons of Magic standalone fairy tale retellings into one volume, including bonus content from the very first story.
Inside,
Of the Clouds (Rapunzel)
Shaman-in-training Quri has only ever known her master's hut... until Sumaq arrives and shows her what she can be. Does she dare defy everything she's ever known to be free?
Pumpkin Spice Pie-Jinks (Hansel & Gretel)
Pie witch Reese was never a risk taker... until she quit her job to open a magical bakery. But with the bakery one bad week from going under and two mischievous sprites intent on making her life difficult, can she pull through to win the contest that can save her business?
Freeze Thaw (Sleeping Beauty)
Talia was meant to be her clan's next leader... until an evil sorceress trapped her in a millenias-long slumber. When archaeology student Owen accidentally wakes her, he wakes the evil right alongside her. Can they stop the sorceress and save Talia and her people?
All That Glimmers (Rumplestiltskin)
Hallie, reeling from the loss of her best friend, struck a bargain with the Fae. Now they are back to collect... unless she can strike a new bargain to change their terms. If she can't, she may just be trapped in the Spring Court forever.
Of the Behind the Story
Take a behind-the-scenes look at Of the Clouds, previously exclusive to the paperback edition of the Rapunzel retelling.

I absolutely love the stories by Selina J Eckert and I have bought those in this anthology individually as well. To me, Selina retells a familiar fairy tale in such a unique way as to empower young women readers facing so many challenges today. I have bought multiple copies of Seasons of Magic as Christmas gifts this year!
