Description

“When it comes to reimagined fairy tales, the reigning queen of the genre is Marissa Meyer.” —The New York Times

In Cursed, #1 New York Times bestselling author Marissa Meyer brings the haunting fairytale-inspired Gilded duology to a thrilling conclusion that will have fans—old and new—spinning.

Be still now, and I will tell you a tale.

Adalheid Castle is in chaos.

Following a shocking turn of events, Serilda finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of make-believe with the Erlking, who is determined to propel her deeper into the castle’s lies. Meanwhile, Serilda is determined to work with Gild to help him solve the mystery of his forgotten name and past.

But soon it becomes clear that the Erlking doesn’t only want to use Serilda to bring back his one true love. He also seeks vengeance against the seven gods who have long trapped the Dark Ones behind the veil. If the Erlking succeeds, it could change the mortal realm forever.

Can Serilda find a way to use her storytelling gifts for good—once and for all? And can Serilda and Gild break the spells that tether their spirits to the castle before the Endless Moon finds them truly cursed?

Romance and adventure collide in this stunning finale to the Rumpelstilskin-inspired fairy tale.

    I love the book! I read both duology back to back. This is book 2. I love how they played upon the fairytale story. Not my most fav fairytale I admit but I really love this book to the point I admit, the “spun to gold” story, has made me a fan of the fairytale.

    This sequel made my heart scream… in good and bad ways. Serilda and Gild sent me on a rollercoaster of emotions with their relationship and stories and all the events in Aldheid castle.

    Marissa Meyer never fails to deliver! I’ve loved her writing since I read the first page of Cinder. She must have received gifts from both Hulda and Wyrdith to be able to weave the stories she gifts us with. I’m astounded by the amount of imagination and creativity the author put forth when she brought us both “Gilded”and “Cursed”. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!
