George MacDonald

Before a kingdom falls to ruin, a young miner must face the blazing fire of roses and uncover the beasts hidden within the hearts of men.

Years have passed since Curdie, the brave miner boy, defeated the malicious goblins lurking beneath the mountains. Now growing older, he risks losing the childlike wonder that once connected him to the ancient magic of the realm. But when an impulsive mistake leads him back to the mysterious great-great-grandmother in the dove tower, Curdie is given a second chance—and a perilous new mission. Ordered to plunge his hands into a mystical fire, he is granted a supernatural gift: the ability to feel the true, often monstrous inner nature of anyone whose hand he touches. Accompanied by Lina, a hideous but loyal beast, Curdie must journey to the corrupt royal court of Gwyntystorm to save the King and Princess Irene from a sinister and deadly conspiracy.

Combining the nostalgic charm of vintage storytelling with a compelling coming-of-age journey, this masterpiece features unlikely animal companions, magical trials, and a timeless battle of good versus evil that will captivate listeners of all ages.
