Synopsis

When magic and magical creatures are revealed to the world, giant Lord Bjorn Larsen's betrothed breaks off their engagement in favor of a more appropriate human suitor. In a fit of rage, the giant removes his heart from his body to become more powerful and unfeeling, like the giants of legend.

Prince Filip Magnusson finds himself in a pinch. His six older brothers went missing after leaving him behind to attend a ball, and now, he's in line to inherit the throne. Determined to save himself from taking a leadership role, he runs away to try and free his brothers, save the princess, and slay the giant scourge terrorizing the countryside. In order to win, he'll need to be a little Heartless.

Heartless is a modernized retelling of The Giant Who Had No Heart in His Body with a dark fantasy twist.

About this title

About the Author

I'm a semi-professional, semi-crazed author who lives off of caffeine and spite. I'm an Arizona native and a Washington transplant trying to live the dream of working for myself doing what I love. My (current) pen names are Maria Caiazza and M. W. McLeod. If you hate happy endings and love tragedies, you're in the right place. Home of modern fairy tale retellings with a dark fantasy twist and a soon to be prolific series about villainous zodiac signs.
