The Fairy Tale Kingdoms series by Shari L. Tapscott reimagines classic fairy tales with original characters, kingdoms, and romance. The series began in 2016 with The Marquise and Her Cat, a Puss in Boots retelling, and continued through 2019 with three more books that each take on a different source tale.
The Queen of Gold and Straw reworks the Rumpelstiltskin story, while The Sorceress in Training puts its own spin on the magical apprentice tradition. Each book stands on its own as a self-contained retelling, though they share a connected world. Readers who enjoy fairy tale retellings with a light romantic touch will find this series a good fit, especially alongside Tapscott’s Entwined Tales books, which take a similar approach.
