All Bea’s done is make mistakes. Now her friends are paying the price…
Once upon a time, a lowly cabbage fairy ran away to Ӕnathlin, the last surviving city of the fae, centre of the stories, and home of the General Administration. She was going to be the first fairy to become a godmother and run the best Plots anyone had ever seen.
Only things didn’t work out like that. Not even close.
Banished and alone, Bea’s only solace is that she can’t cause any more harm to the people she loves. Until her path crosses two old friends: a genie on a journey of redemption and an elf with delusional optimism. Now she has to get all three of them safely through the treacherous Sheltering Forest if she’s ever to find the mythical Pathways Tree.
Bea knows she’s not the fairy for the job. Every decision she’s made has led to disaster. But with the fate of the world on her shoulders, what choice does she have?
Packed full of wit and imagination, The First and Final Story is the thrilling fifth instalment of the bestselling fantasy series, The Pathways Tree by award-winning author F. D. Lee and read by Eilidh Beaton.
