Sophie wants to be a princess, and win her ...

This year, best friends Sophie and Agatha are about to discover where all the lost children go: the fabled School for Good & Evil, where ordinary boys and girls are trained to be fairy tale heroes and villains.

The world of the Woods and the School for Good and Evil is so much fun! It is colorful and vibrant, with magic imbued in every aspect. I found it really interesting to see some of the normal fairytale tropes get turned into magic system rules, and the ways that the characters use it or, in my favorite cases, cheat the system were really witty ...

Journey into a dazzling new world when two best friends enter the School for Good and Evil, where ordinary boys and girls are trained to be fairy-tale heroes and villains. One will train for Good, one will become Evil’s new hope. Each thinks they know where they belong.
