Less Than Charming (Mark of the Storyteller)

By Rebecca A. Demarest

Book Overview

Prince Charming is up to no good.Princess Sophia-youngest of the 12 Dancing Princesses of
Grimm Brothers fame-has decided to leave princessing and join
the workforce as an investigative journalist. When she finally
gets to sink her teeth into her first case, she finds it lies closer to
home than is comfortable.

In a world where every character humanity has created lives and
thrives based on human imagination, Sophia is but one of many
princesses to have run-ins with the infamous Prince Charming.
However, she isn't falling for his charms and his actions only
drive her suspicion higher. With the help of Jack the Giantkiller
and an imaginary friend, she intends to find out just what this
ancient character is hiding.

"Sharp, sassy, full of invention and energy, and far more than
charming-intoxicating."
- Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked

"(Sophia's) investigation takes her through an inventive, wacky
world of mashed-up fictions...As the story progresses, the tone
shifts abruptly from parody to something darker...that reveal(s)
the truths hidden by Charming's sanitized tales..."
