Following a young wizard prince and a warrior princess who were raised to despise one another, this fantasy adventure blends humour, heart and Cowell's signature sketch-style illustrations.

Raised on opposite sides of an ancient feud, the pair are forced together when Witches, long thought extinct, begin stirring in the dark heart of the Wildwoods. Across four books their friendship deepens as the stakes rise: in Twice Magic they are separated by an impossible wall as witches spread havoc; in Knock Three Times they become outlaws racing to gather ingredients for a spell that could banish the Witches for good, while betrayal lurks close by; and in Never and Forever they face the terrifying Kingwitch and a monstrous Tatzelwerm to mix a potion strong enough to lift the curse threatening the Wildwoods forever. Told with short, punchy chapters and playful illustrations, the series has been praised for its clever storytelling and lovable characters, making it an ideal set for bedtime reading, holidays or a first fantasy series for children moving beyond picture books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete four-book paperback set in reading order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-paced fantasy adventure with humour and heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated throughout with Cressida Cowell's signature line drawings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect follow-on for How to Train Your Dragon fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat gift set for birthdays, Christmas or reading rewards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort chapters ideal for independent or bedtime reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCressida Cowell is the author and illustrator of the bestselling How to Train Your Dragon series, which has sold over 8 million copies worldwide in 38 languages and inspired an award-winning DreamWorks film series and Netflix\/CBBC TV show.
