The Princess and the Witch

Where the Old Things Go

Where do the dragons go when they're done?
Over the hill, past the setting sun.
Where do the witches sleep when they're old?
Somewhere with stars that are not quite cold.

Hush now, hush now, don't ask why—
some of the stars are the same in that sky.

Every bedtime story your child has ever loved is true somewhere.

Step closer

It began the way most real magic does — at bedtime, with one particular four-year-old, and a witch who was not supposed to be good.

It became a world. Seven kingdoms. Six sovereigns. A thousand years of history pressing toward a single night. Two ways to tell it, and both of them true.

A word from Gretchen

"I burned down a kingdom once. Took me considerably longer to learn how to make a decent cup of cocoa and somehow that's the part Morgan actually respects."
