Prequel to The Land of Stories series.
"When Brystal Evergreen stumbles across a secret section of the library, she discovers a book that introduces her to a world beyond her imagination and learns the impossible: She is a fairy capable of magic! But in the oppressive Southern Kingdom, women are forbidden from reading and magic is outlawed, so Brystal is swiftly convicted of her crimes and sent to the miserable Bootstrap Correctional Facility. But with the help of the mysterious Madame Weatherberry, Brystal is whisked away and enrolled in an academy of magic! Adventure comes with a price, however, and when Madame Weatherberry is called away to attend to an important problem, she doesn't return. Do Brystal and her classmates have what it takes to stop a sinister plot that risks the fate of the world, and magic, forever?"--Page [2] of cover.

BEST BOOK EVER submitted by avgriffith on August 10, 2020, 9:06am This is a great book! It it amazing and the author is FABULOUS!!!!!!!!

Amazing book! submitted by paninii_123 on July 21, 2021, 11:19am A Tale of Magic, followed by A Tale of Witchcraft and A Tale of Sorcery, by Chris Colfer is an enticing story that precedes the Land of Stories series. With vivid descriptions and extreme detail, this book lays out a wonderful story that explains a lot of the questions I had while reading the Land of Stories series. Additionally, for me, Brystal Evergreen was very relatable as she had a thirst for learning, especially with books.
I would recommend this book for all Land of Stories lovers!

This is a great book submitted by The Book Broken Girl on May 1, 2022, 10:30am Does such a great job of explaining import Land of Stories characters' backstories. A Tale of Sorcery is by far my favorite, as it is JUST SO ACTIONPACKED!
