Review

“The seventh chapter of Chainani’s bestselling fantasy series sends readers back to where it all began” Waterstones, Books of the Year 2022

Praise for The School for Good and Evil

“Reimagines the world of fairy tales and will make you question who is good and who is evil. Loved it!” – Rick Riordan, author of the bestselling Percy Jackson series

“A fairy tale like no other, complete with romance, magic, and humour… that will keep you turning pages until the end.” –Newbury Award-winning author Ann M. Martin

“T’will enchant young girls and boys alike with its twisted take on the classic fairytales.” –The Bookbag

“Dark, funny and entertaining” – Teenlibrarian.co.uk

“Amazing!!! Brilliant!!! PERFECTO!!! Mindblowing!!! Love it. Absolutely LOVE it.” – Ava

“This book is amazing!! It really kept me up all night and I could not wait to finish it! GO AND READ IT. SERIOUSLY. GO, GO, GO!” – Anna, Goodreads

From the Back Cover

THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL will soon be a major motion picture from Netflix – starring Academy Award winner Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Laurence Fishburne, Michelle Yeoh, Sofia Wylie, Sophie Anne Caruso, Jamie Flatters, Earl Cave, Kit Young and more!

The battle between Good and Evil begins.

Go back in time to the beginning of the School for Good and Evil and uncover the never-before-told events leading up to Sophie and Agatha’s dramatic arrival and the beginning of their epic fairy tale.

Two brothers. One Good. One Evil.

Together, they watch over the Endless Woods. Together, they choose the students for the School for Good and Evil. Together they train them, teach them, prepare them for their fate.

Then, something happens. Something that will change everything and everyone. Who will survive? Who will rule the School?

The journey starts here. With magic, surprises and daring deeds at every turn, courage and loyalty will be put to the test, only to lead you to the very beginning of the adventures that are The School for Good and Evil.

I bought this book for my granddaughter who is quite ill in hospital and I was very disappointed when she got upset over the damage to the book when she opened it. This has upset me too as I wanted it to try and make her stay in hospital a little bit better !
