Publisher's summary

The tale is told as if it's happening once upon a dream: the lovely maiden meets her handsome prince in the woods. The story has been told many times and in many ways. But always the maiden finds out that she is a princess - a princess who has been cursed by a dark fairy to prick her finger on a spindle and fall into an eternal sleep. Though her three good fairies try to protect her, the princess succumbs to the curse. But the power of good endures, as her true love defeats the fire-breathing dragon and awakens the princess with true love's first kiss. The two live happily ever after.

And yet this is only half the story. So what of the dark fairy, Maleficent? Why does she curse the innocent princess? What led to her becoming so filled with malice, anger, and hatred? Many tales have tried to explain her motives. Here is one account, pulled down from the many passed down through the ages. It is a tale of love and betrayal, of magic and reveries. It is a tale of the mistress of all evil.

Pretty good

Pretty good book, however, I felt like it centered more around Nanny and the Odd Sisters than Maleficent

Heartbreaker in the series

This story was the most heartbreaking of the series so far. My heart was crushed but full of hope by the last chapter. Way to preform and way to write!

Audible, you're ridiculous!!!

Audible, this is ridiculous!!! I just wanted to rate this book and not write a review. Having to write reviews in order to rate has prevented me from rating at all. I just want to give props to enjoyable reads . I will just copy and paste this "review" going forward.

The villains pain

This is a great book and I love to narrator for all of the series.

I'm struggling with the non-existence of a happy ending for most of the villains but, this is the villains collection.

Sequels and Prequels

This is a great story masterfully performed. I loved the prequel villains collection and can't wait for "Mother Knows Best" to come out. I hope Lucy Rayner will reprise her vocal talent when the following 2 sequels are released.

Awesome!

I am a huge Maleficent fan. This book made me love her even more. I love the entire series so far and cannot wait to finish them all.
