Part of Your World-A Twisted Tale

What if Ariel had never defeated Ursula?

This immersive, creative twist on the beloved Disney classic Little Mermaid is the 5th installment in the New York Times best-selling A TWISTED TALE series!


It's been 5 years since the infamous sea witch defeated the little mermaid... and took King Triton's life in the process. Ariel is now the voiceless queen of Atlantica, while Ursula runs Prince Eric's kingdom on land. But when Ariel discovers that her father might still be alive, she finds herself returning to a world—and a prince—she never imagined she would see again. 


Fans will love exploring how things would have changed had Ursula won and Ariel lost—and spending more time with all the Little Mermaid characters they love in this suspenseful, imaginative spin on the cherished Disney favorite.

After the sort of introverted childhood you would expect from a writer, Liz earned a degree in Egyptology at Brown University and then promptly spent the next ten years producing video games. Finally she caved into fate and wrote Snow and Rx under the name Tracy Lynn, followed by The Nine Lives of Chloe King series under her real name, because by then the assassins hunting her were all dead. She also wrote A Whole New World: A Twisted Tale; Once Upon a Dream: A Twisted Tale; and As Old as Time: A Twisted Tale. She lives in Brooklyn with a husband, two children, a cat, a part-time dog, three fish and five coffee trees she insists will start producing beans any day.  You can email her at me@lizbraswell.com or tweet @LizBraswell.
