A Crown of Gilded Thread: A Rumpelstiltskin Fairy Tale Retelling

By Evangaline Pierce

Twenty years ago, the Earth opened and swallowed Rumpelstiltskin whole. Nothing has been the same since.

In all that time, Gwen Miller never wished for magic. When her father makes a desperate bargain with the King, Gwen is thrust into a dangerous game. She must spin straw into gold to marry the prince or face certain death. History has a way of repeating itself. With no magic to aid her, she turns to the enigmatic Mr. Woolworth for help.

As she delves deeper into this world of secrets and power, Gwen discovers there is more to her story than she could ever have imagined. Now the fate of magic rests on her.

This is a clean fairy tale retelling of the classic story of Rumpelstiltskin. Have you ever read a fairytale and wondered: Why would a father sell out a daughter who doesn't have magic, or why would a king marry a common girl with no connections and no money? Why do they always marry the prince?
