In a world where Kings and Queens make court, where monsters are real, and magic is to be feared, there exists a great and terrible labyrinth of unknown origin, lorded over by an equally enigmatic and mysterious King. No one who enters the labyrinth without the King's permission leaves, those who defy the King are thrown in as punishment, but for everyone else who lives within this King's domain, the labyrinth is a source of safety and protection. For Cora, the labyrinth is about to become a nightmare from which she can never awaken. The Labyrinth Queen is the first in a brand new series by Tansey Morgan, author of the hit debut novel, 'Serpent's Touch', and the Last Serpent series.

As a reverse harem fantasy novel, you can expect there to be action, magic, intrigue, and multiple primary love interests. Sexual content will also form a part of this series, as will swearing and violence. If you're happy with all of this, then... Pre-order the Labyrinth Queen today, and "forget about the baby"!
