Description

Everybody knows the Cinderella story, but no one knows the lie. There never was a fairy godmother, just Primrose Goodwing: a pixie whose magic always comes undone at midnight. Prim has just become the only Goodwing-ever-to fail her fairy godmother test. But she's not ready to give up her wand yet.Trading her wings to smuggle herself into the Mortal Vale, Prim dreams of proving her worth by whipping up a happily-ever-after for a human venture in the quaint kingdom of Lindonberg. Too bad Ember, the headstrong girl she picks, has her own ideas about happy endings that don't involve the traditional castle and crown. Worse, Prim finds her heart torn by the wily shape shifter Calico, a descendant of Puss n' Boots who hides a dark secret behind his spite for humans.All Prim's schemes unravel when she discovers that "perfect" little Lindonberg is entangled in a web of intrigue and spells that threatens to annihilate every kingdom in the Mortal Vale. Will her first fairy tale become her last? Discover the true tale of the pixie behind the girl with the glass slippers!Enjoy the animated Iffy Magic book trailer by Sealoch Studio on YouTube!Book Review Highlights:"An intriguing plot, an enchanting world-and great fun for the reader. The plot may take the Cinderella story for its inspiration, but the wonderful characters, ingenious plot and unfailing writing style make for a more layered, evocative and entertaining story than the original tale ever achieved . . . Readers of all ages will come to love Primrose Goodwing, the would-be fairy godmother, and the magical world she lives in." -Author Dean Hughes"This is yet another author taught by Brandon Sanderson who really caught the vision of how to make an interesting, workable, and clearly-defined magic system. It is consistent, and it required very little direct explanation for the reader to understand. Page wove it well into the story." -MySF Reviews"An often surprising, always magical romp through a fairytale you wish would never end. With an incredible opening containing just the right amount of intrigue and despair to hold a reader fast, S.E. Page sets the pace and introduces the world of Iffy Magic in one deft move."- 5 Star Review from Readers' Favorite"I recommend this book to fairytale fans, especially those that love a good unicorn!" -Whispering Stories"Fun characters, action, humor and mystery abound in this unique fairy tale. I hesitate to call it a retelling of Cinderella, because it's a completely new take with brilliant twists and turns." -Author Johan Twiss
