Six of the Carmarthen Academy students found themselves lost in time when they first started learning magic.

Life’s no fairy tale for Jack. After all, his father's been missing ever since that incident with the beanstalk and the giant, and his grandfather keeps pushing him to get out and find a princess to rescue. Who'd want to rescue a snobby, entitled princess anyway? Especially one that falls out of the sky wearing a shirt that says "Punk Princess," and still denies she's royalty. In fact, May doesn't even believe in magic. Yeah, what's that about? May does need help though--a huntsman is chasing her, her grandmother has been kidnapped, and Jack thinks it’s all because of the Wicked Queen . . . mostly because May’s grandmother might just be the long-lost Snow White. Jack and May's thrillingly hilarious adventure combines all the classic stories—fractured as a broken magic mirror—into one epic novel for the ages.

Storybook characters collide in this first book in a new trilogy of twisted fairy tales from New York Times bestselling author James Riley, set in the world of his popular Half Upon a Time series—perfect for fans of Fablehaven and Chris Colfer’s A Tale of Magic series! Five and a half feet might seem pretty tall for a twelve-year-old, but it’s not when your parents are giants. Lena has kept the fact that she’s a tiny giant secret, using magic to grow when out in the giant village. But hiding who she is has always felt wrong, even though she knows the other giants might not accept her. Fortunately, Lena has friends down in the Cursed City who understand that looking different doesn’t make her less of a giant. Someone who knows not to judge by appearances is Jin, a young genie currently serving one thousand and thirty-eight years of genie training that requires him to fulfill the wish of whoever holds his magical ring. In Jin’s case, it’s the power-hungry Golden King. At least the king only has two wishes left, one of which is for Jin to go to the Cursed City and capture its protector, the Last Knight—one of Lena’s closest friends. What Lena and Jin don’t know is how close the Golden King’s plans are to coming together, between his dark magic and his horrible Faceless knights. If Jin does find the Last Knight and bring him to the Golden King, why, that could doom the entire fairy-tale world. ...This sounds like it’ll end badly, doesn’t it?

Forced to live in a false happily ever after, Lena and the other giants must live as humans with no memory of their former lives until Lena hatches a plan to thwart the fairy queens' magic and save the genie Jin.

Storybook characters collide in this trilogy of twisted fairy tales from New York Times bestselling author James Riley, set in the world of his popular Half Upon a Time series and now together in one hardcover boxed set! Five and a half feet might seem pretty tall for a twelve-year-old, but it’s quite small when your parents are giants. As a human-sized giant in a world where humans and giants hate each other, Lena has never felt accepted for who she is. But when she runs away to the Cursed City hoping to find a place to belong among its enchanted inhabitants, she instead finds an even bigger problem. The Golden King and his Faceless army are spreading shadow magic across land, and his next target is the Cursed City. If the Last Knight is defeated, the only ones standing in the way of the king’s conquest will be Lena, her talking cat Rufus, new genie-in-training (with a questionable moral compass) Jin, and an arrogant prince who’s tiny even by human standards. But the Golden King isn’t the only danger in the land, and the history behind the shadow magic is darker than anyone knows. Lena’s giant-sized strength makes her the perfect person to face these challenges. But it takes strength of a different kind to tell right from wrong and stay true to yourself in the process. If she makes the wrong choice, that could mean the end of Happily Ever Afters for the entire fairy tale world! This adventurous hardcover boxed set includes: Once Upon Another Time Tall Tales Happily Ever After
