Maleficent and Aurora share a bond that neither the fairy realm nor the human court fully accepts, and Mistress of Evil puts that bond under strain.
This Centum Books edition retells the story for readers who know the film, following the widening conflict between two worlds and the question of where loyalty should sit when both sides claim to be protecting someone. Magic, suspicion and old grievance drive the plot, while the emotional centre stays with a guardian and the young woman she raised.
What the book delivers:
• A retelling connected to the Maleficent screen story, published by Centum Books
• Centres on the relationship between Maleficent and Aurora
• Themes of loyalty, mistrust and conflict between magical and human worlds
• Presented in English for younger fantasy readers
Suited to younger readers drawn to dark fairy tales and to followers of the films, available from Boipoka.
