 Faery Tales & Nightmares
About FAERY TALES AND NIGHTMARES: Dangerous promises and beguiling threats swirl together in a dozen stories of enchantments dark and light by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Marr. Uncanny and unexpected creatures appear from behind bushes, rise from beneath the seas, or manifest from seasonal storms to pursue the objects of their attention—with amorous or sinister intent—relentlessly.

From the gentle tones of a storyteller’s cadences to the terror of a blood sacrifice, tales of favorite characters from Marr’s Wicked Lovely novels mix with accounts of new characters for readers to fall in love with...or to fear.

Lush, seductive, and chilling, Melissa Marr’s stories revel in the unseen magic that infuses the world as we know it.

Bio: Melissa Marr is the New York Times bestselling author of the Wicked Lovely series of young adult novels, Carnival of Souls, also for young adults, and Graveminder, a novel for adults.  She currently lives in the Washington, D.C, area with her family.
