A storybook chase beyond the kingdoms

In this fourth Land of Stories adventure, Alex and Conner Bailey face a threat that crosses the boundaries between books. The Masked Man’s potion turns any book it touches into a portal, opening a path to Oz, Neverland, Wonderland, and other literary worlds as he gathers villains. Alex’s removal from the Fairy Council leaves the twins struggling to convince others of the danger, while a team including Goldilocks, Jack, Red Riding Hood, and Mother Goose joins their effort. The setup brings fairy-tale figures and classic story settings into one shared adventure, with the central conflict driven by pursuit and the possibility of stories becoming doorways.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers of the earlier Land of Stories books.
  • For children ages 9–12 interested in fairy tales, folklore, and classic story worlds.
  • For readers who enjoy adventures bringing familiar storybook characters together.

Book overview

Fairy tales are just the beginning.

The Masked Man is on the loose in the Land of Stories, and it's up to Alex and Conner Bailey to stop him...except Alex has been thrown off the Fairy Council, and no one will believe they're in danger.

With only the help of the ragtag group of Goldilocks, Jack, Red Riding Hood, and Mother Goose and her gander, Lester, the Bailey twins discover the Masked Man's secret scheme: He possesses a powerful magic potion that turns every book it touches into a portal, and he is recruiting an army of literature's greatest villains!

So begins a race through the magical Land of Oz, the fantastical world of Neverland, the madness of Wonderland, and beyond. Can Alex and Conner catch up to the Masked Man, or will they be one step behind until it's too late?

Fairy tales and classic stories collide in the fourth adventure in the bestselling Land of Stories series as the twins travel beyond the kingdoms!
