We are very proud (and a bit wary) to announce the publication of The Spiderwick Chronicles. But beware, the faeries will use all their power to stop you from reading these books.

Book 2 of The Spiderwick Chronicles in which Mallory, Simon and Jared ask many questions and discover the fate of the missing cat. With the aid of a seeing stone the true nature of the secret world around them is now revealed. It's important the Grace kids tell their story but the faeries will do everything to stop them...

It's up to you to spread the word about their discovery. But heed their warnings, wear some red, turn your clothes inside out – all anti-faerie devices – and get ready to enter a world that you never knew existed... It's closer than you think!

Holly Black

Holly Black

Holly Black is a name that has become synonymous with dark, enchanting tales where the boundary between magic and reality is as fragile as the fates of her characters. With her signature blend of dark fantasy, sharp intrigue, and an exploration of power, loyalty, and betrayal, she has carved out a space where readers can lose themselves in worlds of dangerous faeries, morally complex characters, and high-stakes intrigue.

Born in New Jersey, Holly’s love for fantasy started early. She spent her childhood reading everything from fairy tales to mythologies, which would later inspire the intricate, otherworldly realms she’s known for today. With an academic background steeped in history and a passion for creating stories that both thrill and challenge, she began her career writing about the dark side of the fantastical. Her first success came with The Cruel Prince, the start of the Folk of the Air trilogy, a series that would quickly cement her as one of the leading voices in young adult fantasy.

Her writing is distinct for its beautifully crafted worlds that teem with tension and peril, paired with characters who live in moral gray areas, each facing temptations and making choices that make them unforgettable. Fans of Holly Black know that when they pick up one of her books, they are about to dive into a world full of twists, turns, and enough danger to keep them hooked until the last page. Her stories often feature the kinds of faeries who aren't just mischievous or whimsical—they're dangerous, calculating, and deeply human in their desires and flaws.

Beyond her best-known series, like The Cruel Prince and The Wicked King, Holly has ventured into various genres and formats, continually broadening her storytelling reach while maintaining the gripping, atmospheric quality her readers love. She has earned acclaim and a devoted following not just for her knack for world-building but for her ability to create emotionally resonant characters that stay with readers long after the final page is turned.

When she’s not crafting worlds where betrayal runs as deep as the magic that flows through them, Holly Black can be found reflecting on her own experiences with power, choice, and identity—elements that are deeply embedded in her stories. Her works are more than mere escape—they are a study of what it means to be human, even when the world is anything but.

If you’re seeking a world where beauty and danger collide, where characters aren’t defined by their virtues but by their choices, Holly Black’s novels will undoubtedly draw you in, spellbound, and leave you yearning for more.
