The Crimson Crown Summary

The Crimson Crown by Heather Walter

Mirror, mirror on the wall, whos the most wicked of them all? Snow Whites dark queen tells her side of the story in this queer, witchy reimagining of the classic fairy tale from the author of Malice.

Legends tell of a witch who became a queen the heartless villain in the story of Snow White. But now the wicked queen is stepping out of Snow Whites shadow to become the heroine of her own legend.

Her once upon a time began when she was just Ayleth, a young witch living in the forest with her coven, practicing their magic in secret and hiding from the White Kings brutal war against witchcraft.

Ayleth, however, faces a war of her own. Her magical gifts have yet to reveal themselves, and as the threat of the Royal Huntsmen intensifies, she fears she will never become the witch her coven needs.

To prove herself, she sets out on a perilous quest that sends her to the White Palace, a decadent world of drama and deceit. There, she encounters an unlikely figure from her past, Jacquetta the witch who once held Ayleths heart but then betrayed her.

As events at the palace escalate, Ayleth finds herself caught in the web of the White King, whose dark charisma is as dangerous as the sinister force that seems to be haunting the palace. With the threat of discovery looming, Ayleth and Jacquetta must set aside the wounds of their past and work together to survive.

But to do this, Ayleth must find the strength to transform into someone she never imagined she could be.

A powerful witch, the very wickedest of them all.

The Crimson Crown Reviews

Beautiful and gloriously poisonous, The Crimson Crown will enthral you. * Tasha Suri, World Fantasy Award-winning author of The Jasmine Throne *
Its always a pleasure to read a villain origin story that makes you go Good for her, and Heather Walter pulls this off masterfully in The Crimson Crown. This is a lush, dark, riveting tale about all the things that can lie in a womans heart - power, rage, grief, vengeance - and it is spun in such haunting prose that it kept me on the edge of my seat all throughout. Simply gorgeous. * Thea Guanzon, USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars *

An alluring, vengeful origin story as youve never seen before. The Crimson Crown brings
tremendous dimension to a classic fairytale, ushering in the darkness youve always craved.

* Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of Immortal Longings *

Walter's deeply rooted point of view never falters and is supported by intricate worldbuilding
and a history of family, love, and betrayal - and the prices paid for each.

* Sara A. Mueller, author of The Bone Orchard *
