Kingdom of the Wicked Paperback Boxed Set

#1 on The New York Times children’s series–NYT“An intoxicating, tightly plotted feast for the senses with a dramatic cliffhanger.”–Kirkus Reviews“Lyrical writing and an immersive atmosphere accompany a well-built world rooted in 19th-century Palermo, especially evocative descriptions of food prepared in the family’s restaurant, while intriguing plot twists round off the novel.”–Publishers Weekly“The characters are richly drawn; the worldbuilding is smart, based on historical events and infused with magic; and the page-turning plot is a force to be reckoned with. Food, family, magic, and romance are threaded into this propulsive story, making it a thrilling, wondrous, and atmospheric tale.”–Booklist

Kerri Maniscalco grew up in a semi-haunted house outside New York City, where her fascination with gothic settings began. In her spare time she reads everything she can get her hands on, cooks all kinds of food with her family and friends, and drinks entirely too much tea while discussing life’s finer points with her cats. She is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Stalking Jack the Ripper quartet and Kingdom of the Wicked series.
