The Seven Kingdoms is Cordelia Castel’s debut series, with all 10 books published in 2018. The series takes classic fairy tales and reworks them in a connected fantasy world where magic exists in some places but is forbidden in others.
The main storyline follows a Cinderella-inspired protagonist, while novelettes explore other retellings including Rumpelstiltskin, the Frog Prince, and Snow White. The world Castel built here also serves as the foundation for her later Dragon Mage Academy series, which is set one generation later.
