This was a birthday gift for my 11 yr old niece. She was through it in about 10 days. She enjoyed this book (and anything Harry Potter-ish, wizardry, magical. It was money well spent.

Customer reviews & ratings
A Tale of Magic by Chris Colfer
Prequel series to the very popular Land of Stories series. It was fun being back in the same world, learning about the origin stories of some famous fairies in the Land of Stories. I enjoyed listened to the audio book which is read by author/actor Chris Colfer. Very positive messages about not having to conform to gender roles, being different is okay and accepting others different than yourself. This prequel seemed to have a bit more violence/cruelty, magical or otherwise, than I remember the original series having.
