Synopsis

The sky was never the limit.

What if Snow White lived in a virtual world where the lines of reality are too blurred? What if Cinderella's ugly step-sister was half made of metal and springs? What if Sleeping Beauty slipped into a hundred years of cryo sleep?

Seven authors join forces to reimagine your favorite fairy tales as new sci-fi adventures filled with space, tech, magic, charm, and of course: happily ever afters.

• Into the Arms of Morpheus

  Amy Johnson

  
  A lifetime of captivity in her own home has made Princess Liana curious. Maybe a little too curious. When a dare from one of her so-called friends leads to her pushing one wrong button, Liana realizes that her parents' efforts to protect her were not unwarranted. A monster descends upon her planet, and there's nothing anyone can do to stop him. In their haste to protect their only child, Liana's parent's force her into cryostasis. But what will be left when she wakes up-if she wakes up? A Sleeping Beauty retelling.
  

• Everything Made Beautiful

  Dawn Christine Jonckowski

  In the kingdom of NexusNova, beauty is bought at a price, and there is no place for the ugly. Disfgured from a childhood accident and crippled by her mother's selfish debts, Briallen will never be able to afford better looks, but finds contentment alone in the shadows. Until a case of mistaken identity at the Prince's ball introduces her to the one person who might actually see what lies behind the scars. A Cinderella retelling.
  

• Skyscraper

  Hayley Anderton

  Rapunzel has never left her high rise building. But when a mysterious stranger appears on her balcony, she begins to question more about the world outside and why she has been locked away from it for so long.
  

• Aliandra

  Destiny Eve

  
  After meeting the alluring thief Aliandra, adventurous Princess Jazmyn embarks on a quest for the Spirit of Arsalan: a mystic orb that is the reason their world is at war. But are either of them-or anyone-worthy enough to possess it? An Aladdin retelling.
  

• Stardust and Steel

  Meri Benson

  When Andromina's father goes missing, she'll travel into unregulated space to find him. Though she'll never expect what she finds on a hidden planet in this Beauty and the Beast retelling.
  

• Just A Byte

  Marie Sinadjan

  In the not-so-distant future, The Corporation is the fairest of them all.

  But nothing is as it seems. After an attempt on her life, Blanche finds herself caught up in a rebel plot against her stepmother Adriana, CEO of The Corporation, and the queen of Modding. A Snow White and Snow White and Rose Red retelling.
  

• Wild Swan Chase

  Meghan Tomlinson

  On an interstellar search for her missing brothers, Lark Svanur may have met her prince via subspace code. But when she discovers him stealing top-secret parts from one of her brothers' ships, can she trust him to help her save her eleven brothers from the lab of her bird-obsessed stepmother, or will their happily ever after be over before it begins? A Swan Brothers retelling.
