Publisher Description

A New York Times Bestseller!

Fans of dark fairy-tales like The Hazel Wood and The Cruel Prince will relish this atmospheric and absorbing book based on Guillermo del Toro’s critically acclaimed movie.

Oscar winning writer-director Guillermo del Toro and bestselling author Cornelia Funke have come together to transform del Toro’s hit movie Pan’s Labyrinth into an epic and dark fantasy novel for readers of all ages, complete with haunting illustrations and enchanting short stories that flesh out the folklore of this fascinating world.

This spellbinding tale takes readers to a sinister, magical, and war-torn world filled with richly drawn characters like trickster fauns, murderous soldiers, child-eating monsters, courageous rebels, and a long-lost princess hoping to be reunited with her family.

A brilliant collaboration between masterful storytellers that’s not to be missed.

“Perfectly unsettling and deeply felt, this reminded me of the best kind of fairytales wherein each chapter is a jewel that, when held up to the light, reframes how we see the world around us.” —Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Star-Touched Queen and Aru Shah and the End of Time

“A fearless and moving adaption of the film, and a gorgeously written, emotional, frightening parable about the courage of young women amid the brutality of war.” —Michael Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Gone

Slightly Smiling Face“Re-read | *Pan’s Labyrinth* was one of the first stories that pulled me into the world of dark, enchanting tales. Guillermo del Toro remains one of my favorite creative geniuses to this day. His ability to take something sinister and somehow make it poetic and alluring is just magical. Even though his work terrifies me, I can’t help but be drawn in, always wanting to know more. This story in particular has a special place in my heart—it shaped my love for this genre as I was growing up. How he manages to create something so terrifying yet mesmerizingly beautiful is beyond me. I'd say I'd read his stories to my kids, but that would probably scar them for life! Revisiting *Pan’s Labyrinth* felt so nostalgic, and I might just have to dive into a Guillermo del Toro marathon soon...”
