Drew Hayes published three standalone novels outside his main series. Pears and Perils (2013) was an early comedic adventure. Second Hand Curses (2017) retells classic fairy tales from the perspective of the side characters and villains, giving familiar stories a darker and funnier twist.
A Decade of Death and Decisions (2024) was his final standalone. The three books show Hayes working in different registers, from broad comedy to something closer to literary fairy tale, though his sense of humor runs through all of them.
