About the book

Long ago, in a kingdom far away, lived the magician of Tiger Castle.

Once the greatest in the land, Anatole's spells have dried up. He has become an outcast of the King's court, with kind Princess Tullia his only friend.

But Tullia has been promised to a rich neighbouring prince, an alliance that would save the bankrupt kingdom - and break her heart. Despite her father's disapproval, she has fallen for a lowly apprentice scribe, with whom there can be no future.

To separate these star-crossed lovers, the King commands Anatole use the most difficult magic of all: an anti-love potion. But even if Anatole had the power left to perform such a feat, could he bring himself to try?

After all, is true love not the purest form of magic? . . .

Discover this charming modern fairytale for adult readers, from the multi-million copy internationally bestselling author of children's classic, Holes.

Chaos, curses, and a castle running on pure nonsense
The Magician of Tiger Castle feels like a fairy tale wandered into a fever dream and decided to stay. Everyone talks like there’s a hidden lesson somewhere, but half the time the lesson is probably, “Maybe don’t trust mysterious magicians?” The world is weird, the logic is questionable, and the characters keep accepting bizarre situations with surprising confidence. And somehow? It’s charming. You start the book mildly confused and end it emotionally invested in absolute nonsense. 🏰✨📚

Ein Coverkauf, der zu seinem Inhalt passt! Anatoles Geschichte endet nicht mit einem HappyEnd, aber es bringt einen trotzdem zum schmunzeln! Eine Geschichte voller Intrigen, Rache und sehr viel Sarkasmus! Nur zu empfehlen! 💜💜💜

Leider ein Reinfall!
Die Grundidee hinter der Geschichte fand ich cool, doe Umsetzung war leider sehr enttäuschend. Das Worlbuiliding war sehr grob, der Plot war so "hopplahopp", immer neue Ideen die dann "schnell mal" umgesetzt werden aber so richtig Spannung kam gar nicht auf. Der Schreibstil war so nüchtern und emotionslos, dass es mir völlig egal war was mit wem passiert, ich habe keinen Charakter wirklich gefühlt oder kennen gelernt. Und das Ende....naja,
