Overview
Step inside Gavaldon, the sleepy village where two children vanish every four years into legend. This five-book paperback set follows Sophie and Agatha as they're swept into the School for Good and Evil, a fabled academy that trains fairy-tale heroes and villains. Sophie dreams of glass slippers and a happy ending among the Evers, while practical, loyal Agatha questions whether "good" and "evil" are ever really so simple. Across five twisty, witty volumes, Soman Chainani builds a sprawling fantasy world of shifting alliances, dangerous quests, and fairy-tale rules turned upside down. A New York Times bestselling series for fantasy-loving readers.

About the Books
Across all five books, Soman Chainani reimagines the fairy tale from the inside out, asking what really separates a hero from a villain. In The School for Good and Evil, Sophie and Agatha are kidnapped from their village and sorted into rival schools, discovering that appearances lie and destiny isn't always earned. A World Without Princes finds the girls back home as a fragile peace between the schools unravels. The Last Ever After forces them to confront the consequences of their choices as their own story is rewritten. In Quests for Glory, a new class of students faces the deadly fourth-year Quests for Glory, where triumph brings legend and failure means being forgotten. A Crystal of Time raises the stakes as a false king seizes Camelot's throne and Sophie is trapped in a dangerous engagement while her friends race to save her. Together, the five books trace an ever-expanding world of enchanted schools, magical kingdoms, and moral gray areas, delivered with Chainani's signature blend of humor, heart, and subversive wit. Themes of friendship, identity, and the cost of being labeled "good" or "evil" run through every volume, making this a satisfying arc for readers who love layered characters and fast-moving plots. It's an ideal set for anyone who grew up on classic fairy tales and is ready to see them turned delightfully upside down, from the first kidnapping in Gavaldon to the final battle for Camelot's crown.
