But in this darkly magical retelling of Sleeping Beauty, true love is more complicated than a simple fairy tale.  Perfect for fans of Naomi Novik and Holly Black.\n\n'Malice is the dark and wicked heart of a fairytale carved into a book. This story is beautiful, vicious magic.' Tasha Suri, author of Empire of Sand \n\n'A truly original and clever retelling of a classic that had me racing to the end - you'll never look at Sleeping Beauty the same again.' S.A. Chakraborty, author of City of Brass\n__________________________________________________________\nOnce upon a time, there was a wicked fairy who, in an act of vengeance, cursed a line of princesses to die. A curse that could only be broken by true love's kiss.\n\nUtter nonsense.\n\nLet me tell you, no one in Briar cares what happens to our princess. I thought I didn't care, either. Until I met her.\n\nPrincess Aurora, last heir to the throne, the future queen her realm needs. One who isn't bothered that I am Alyce, the Dark Grace, abhorred and feared for the mysterious dark magic that runs in my veins. But with less than a year before the curse kills her, any future I might imagine for us is quickly disappearing - and she can't stand to kiss yet another idiotic prince. But maybe I can help her. If my power began the curse, it might be the one to lift it. Perhaps, together, we could forge a new world.\n\nBut we all know how this story ends. Aurora is the beautiful princess. \n\nAnd I am the villain.\n\nBook Two of the Malice Duology is available to preorder now!","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49072046571739,"sku":"9781529101294-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/17c6971a-fe15-4fb5-9daf-004dd84a9612_c7236423-124d-41c8-8cc9-15c0e5f9517b.jpg?v=1786018532","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781529101294-secondhand-malice-book-one-of-the-malice-duology","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
