After saving their school, best friends Sophie and Agatha attempt to get back to normal life in their home village but are ushered back to save the fairy-tale world when all men (princes or not) are pitted as enemies against girls. Twisting tropes and analyzing gender roles, Chainani offers readers a second fast-paced adventure fantasy with plenty of food for thought.
