Would you bring someone you love back to life? For a year, Katherine's heart has lived outside of her, taking up residence at her sister's graveside instead of in her chest. Life goes on and it seems to have left Katherine behind, at least until she unwittingly stumbles into a fairy-tale. When a gift for her sister completes an ancient spell and her father's drunken boasting of her glass-making talents reaches magical ears, Katherine is faced with a deal she can't turn down. If she completes three simple tasks, just three, the king of the fae will bring her sister back to life. But fae bargains are never what they seem, and Katherine is thrust into a world of magic and illusion as she tries to outwit everyone, even her own heart. A tale of grief, magic, romance, and intrigue, Glass Maker is a Rumpelstiltskin Retelling that embodies classic fairy tales. ------ Glass Maker is the first book in the Tales of Glass series and a prequel to Glass Slippers (the 2024 draft). It is not necessary to read the books in order, but it will enhance the reading experience. It is also a Rumpelstiltskin Retelling with Labyrinth (the David Bowie movie) vibes. This is a work in progress!
