“In the not very distant past, two magical stars collided, sending reality spiraling in two very different directions.”
While the old tales continue on as normal in the Source Worlds, in the Mirror Worlds, characters from Disney stories exist in heightened forms. The light and dark mirrors created in the stellar collision fell, pitting the forces of good and evil magic against each other. But the dark mirror has broken, and the Fractured Magic that now claws its way out from it threatens to rend the worlds as we know them asunder. Snow White’s peaceful life has been shattered by this magic: Her friends are missing, her evil stepmother is out to kill her, and she needs to put her fairy tale on hold to sort things out. With the help of new friends from new worlds—including Sulley from Monsters, Inc., Mickey Mouse, and Lilo’s companion Stitch—will she be able to stop the spread of Fractured Magic and set her story to rights? Character development takes a back seat to the adventures, battles, and rich visual details in this plot-driven novel. Familiarity with the main characters will do a great deal to endear them to readers, and the cliffhanger ending promises more adventures in the works.
Will appeal to movie buffs seeking light entertainment.
