Cursed (Gilded #2)

The stunning sequel to Gilded, a young adult Rumpelstiltskin retelling from Marissa Meyer.

Serilda and Gild attempt to break the curses that tether their spirits to Adalheid’s haunted castle before the Endless Moon, when the Erlking means to capture one of the seven gods and make a wish to return his lover, Perchta, from the underworld. But it soon becomes clear that the Erlking’s hunger for vengeance won’t be satisfied with a single wish, and his true intentions have the power to forever alter the mortal realm. Serilda and Gild must try to thwart his wicked plans, all while solving the mystery of Gild’s forgotten name, freeing the ghosts kept in servitude to the Dark Ones, and trying to protect their unborn child.

Romance, danger, and Serilda’s journey to finding her power as a woman, a mother, and a storyteller make this reimagining of Rumpelstiltskin one that Meyer fans – old and new – will treasure.
