This true love's kiss will wake a horror... You know the story. Once upon a time, a princess was cursed to sleep for a hundred years. When the curse was broken, the princess woke and discovered that everyone in her kingdom had become rotting, flesh-eating, corpse-like monsters. ...Maybe you don't know this story. Newly awakened, Princess Briar is the only one in her castle unaffected by the mysterious rotting. She suspects her kingdom is suffering a curse, likely cast by the same fairy who bewitched Briar herself. Accompanied by the two (yes, two) princes who woke her, Briar sets out to discover the truth and save her people. But then she begins to experience frightening symptoms: inexplicable bruises, memory loss, and, oh, yes, an uncontrollable urge to devour her friends. Suddenly, Briar's quest to save her kingdom becomes a race to save herself, before she joins the ranks of the undead. And when information comes to light about what really caused this rotting curse, a truth is revealed... one with the power to break Briar. Now she must make a terrible choice-and discover what really makes a monster. For fans of Marissa Meyer and Erin A. Craig, Rotting Beauty is a twisted fairy tale as ghastly and grisly (and just a little wacky) as it is enchanting.
