Cover Reveal: Wayfarer



Wayfarer: A Tale of Beauty & Madness
By:  Lili St. Crow
Due Out:  March 6, 2014
Publisher: Razorbill



Book Description:

A Charmer’s Ball. Midnight. And one glass slipper… 

Newly orphaned, increasingly isolated from her friends, and terrified of her violent stepmother, Ellen Sinder still believes she’ll be okay. She has a plan for surviving and getting through high school, which includes keeping her head down and saving any credits she can earn or steal. But when a train arrives from over the Waste beyond New Haven, carrying a golden boy and a new stepsister, all of Ellie’s plans begin to unravel, one by one. 

Just when all hope is lost, Ellie meets an odd old woman with a warm hearth and a heavenly garden. Auntie’s kindness is intoxicating, and Ellie finally has a home again. Yet when the clock strikes twelve on the night of the annual Charmer’s Ball, Ellie realizes that no charm is strong enough to make her past disappear… 

In a city where Twisted minotaurs and shifty fey live alongside diplomats and charmers, a teenage girl can disappear through the cracks into safety–or into something much more dangerous. So what happens when the only safety you can find wants to consume you as well?


So? What do you think? I find it absolutely gorgeous, fitting right with the first cover in the series, Nameless (2013).



For those unfamiliar, these are dark YA fairy tale retellings, set in a fantastical, alternative version of our world. Nameless was St. Crow's take on Snow White, while Wayfarer is a take on Cinderella.

    1. Melliane, she does look thin, but I'm thinking being a dark retelling and Cinderella, she might not eat well. I so need to get to these. *sigh*
