RED

RED doesn’t trust magic. Even though her grandmother is the Witch of the Woods, and tries to tutor her, Red’s magic only seems to make a mess of things.

Luckily, Granny’s magic has always been there to guide and protect her. So long as Red walks The Path her Granny’s enchanted through the woods just for her, Red will be safe. But when Granny falls ill, Red must step off her Path in search of a magic that can save Granny’s life. Her adventure will bring her a friend in another girl wandering the woods, Goldie (as in Goldilocks), a foe in a Huntsman who seeks the same magic, and an unlikely new protector in a fearsome yet devoted wolf.
