About this ebook

Once upon a time in a world where magic and technology collide with unexpected consequences…
 

Elfin, a male fairy, and Mikael, smith and inventor, want to know what's better, magic or technology. Unfortunately they didn't consider the human factor. Now they have to hurry to save their guinea pig and his loved-ones from the worst, before someone dies.

What if Wilhelm Hauff hadn't realized who was really responsible for “The Cold Heart”?


The book includes a bonus story and the original fairy tale.

About the Series
This fantasy novella series combines  sorcery and science. It features retellings of your favorite fairy tales and of tales you've never heard. The fairy tales are suitable for teens and older readers alike, mixing steampunk fiction with magical elements in a fantasy world on threshold of technological advance. If the traditional “once upon a time” opening still captures your imagination, you will love these tales.

Author

Katharina Gerlach

Katharina Gerlach was born in Germany in 1968. She and her three younger brothers grew up in the middle of a forest in the heart of the Luneburgian Heather. After romping through the forest with imagination as her guide, the tomboy learned to read and disappeared into magical adventures, past times, or eerie fairytale woods. She didn’t stop at reading. During her training as a landscape gardener, she wrote her first novel, a manuscript full of a beginner’s mistakes. Fortunately, she found books on Creative Writing and soon her stories improved. For a while, reality interfered with her writing but after finishing a degree in forestry and a PhD in Science she returned to her vocation. She likes to write Fantasy, Science Fiction and Historical Novels for all age groups. At present, she is writing at her next project in a small house near Hildesheim, Germany, where she lives with her husband, her children and her dog.
