Tales from the Hinterland

Ages 12 to 18

A gorgeously illustrated collection of twelve “lush and deliciously sinister fairy tales to be consumed as greedily as any Turkish delight or fairy tale fruit” (Kelly Link) by the New York Times bestselling author of The Hazel Wood

Before The Hazel Wood, there was Althea Proserpine’s Tales from the Hinterland. . . .

Journey into the Hinterland, a brutal and beautiful world where a young woman spends a night with Death, brides are wed to a mysterious house in the trees, and an enchantress is killed twice—and still lives.

Perfect for new readers and dedicated fans alike, Melissa Albert's Tales from the Hinterland features full-page illustrations by Jim Tierney, foil stamping, two-color interior printing, and printed endpapers.
