The Clock Master's Apprentice: A Nutcracker Retelling

By Coco Nichole

Marisol Hoffman dreams of becoming a clock master just like her Uncle Drosselmeyer. On the eve of Winterfest, she meets his latest invention - a clockwork soldier that can break nuts.

While the house sleeps, the dolls come to life, unlocking a world of clocks, juju, and sugar. From traversing secret fey gardens, to battling flying monsters, to uncovering the mystery of the Sugarcane Fairy, Marisol will test the limits of her clock mastery. Together with the Nutbreaker, she must find a way to overcome the Bat King or remain frozen in time with her dolls forever.
