Queen Mab

When Faunus, the god of daydreams, breaks the heart of the fairy Queen Mab, revenge can be the only answer. Using the most powerful families in Verona, they wage their war against one another.

But when Queen Mab falls in love with a man named Mercutio, she will do anything, even if it means destroying the world, to save him. Will it be enough to stop the tragedy? Or only spur it forward to its terrible end?

Weaving Shakespeare's original text into a new fairytale, experience the romance and passion of Romeo & Juliet from a different point of view - through the eyes of the bringer of dreams... Queen Mab.


Queen Mab has been adapted for the stage and is available to license.

Reviews

I absolutely loved, loved, loved this book. Kate Danley is superb as she craftily weaves her own twists into Shakespeare’s classic tale. The story is totally enchanting!”
— Sheri Bebee for Reader Views
This book is a tour de force. Capably blending her own dialogue with lines from the Bard himself, Kate Danley brings both Mab and Mercutio into vivid color, reading between the lines of one of the world’s great love stories to create a love story even more fantastical.”
— Rosanne E. Lortz
