The Curse of the Winged Wight

As the Dark Witch’s most valued and gifted dressmaker, sixteen-year-old Rosanna Mapleven knows all there is to know about the finest silks, the best stitches, and the most flattering patterns.

What she doesn’t know is how to evict the evil fairy that possesses her, or how to stop seeing the ghostly apparitions of long-ago murdered girls.

But Rosanna must find a way to succeed in both areas; else she will die, and the Curse of the Winged Wight will never be broken.

Madeline Dyer’s new novella, a gothic fairy tale inspired by Charles Perrault’s “The Sleeping Beauty” (1697), is perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer, Robin McKinley, and Alethea Kontis.

"The Curse of the Winged Wight" first appeared in Ever in the After: 13 Fantasy Tales (April 2017), a charity anthology.
