This is the Twisted Sister’s first book in their new series that takes place in the land of Osaria, thousands of years after the gods left the fae with no magic. I really think this series is going to be my favorite of all of theirs. It is a loose retelling of Aladdin, the guy finds a magical creature who can grant his every wish trapped in a golden coin and uses it to become a rich count to try to win over the princess. There is also a evil stepmother and tons of action and even angst and unrequited love. I can’t wait for the next one to come out, it’s so good!
