Far From Wonder
In Frank Beddor’s The Looking Glass Wars, Royal Bodyguard Hatter Madigan was ordered by Queen Genevieve to take Princess Alyss and leave Wonderland after a bloody palace coup staged by the murderous Redd. But while escaping through the Pool of Tears (the portal connecting Wonderland to our world), crushing centrifugal force pulled them apart and Alyss was lost. In this geographic parallel adventure, Hatter finds himself in Paris, France in the year 1859 shockingly separated from the child he had been sworn to protect.
Unbeknownst to Hatter, Alyss had exited a puddle in London, England. Lost and alone, she was befriended by an aspiring author to whom she told the surreal, violent, heartbreaking story of her young life only to see it published as the nonsensical children’s fairytale Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. But Carroll had got it all wrong. He even misspelled her name! Alyss had trusted Lewis Carroll to tell the truth so that Hatter would find her and bring her home. Instead, Hatter must endure a non-stop quest, crisscrossing the globe for 13 years in search of the lost Princess. While formidable with blades, a moment must be taken to introduce his signature weapon, the Hat. Woven and blocked from a material not available in any realm except the origins of wonder, the Hat, when hurled by his expert hand, instantly unfolds into a circle of blades to attack or defend.

“So glad I took a chance and bought the whole trilogy at once… I saw the books, thumbed through the first couple pages, and knew I had to have them.”
“The Looking Glass Wars is a rollicking literary reinterpretation of the Alice in Wonderland universe sure to cast a spell on its targeting young adult audience as well as older readers. That undercurrent of danger as well as its strong characterization and thrilling plot all contribute to make this a pleasantly surprising and accomplished work.”
“A Series with a dark twist on Alice in Wonderland. There are three amazing books and even 6 graphic novels! Not enough people know about this great series. I am recommending it to all of you. Frank Beddor is a genius.”
“An entertaining cross between Maguire’s WICKED and Steven Spielberg’s Peter Pan movie, Hook, THE LOOKING GLASS WARS launches a promised trilogy about Alyss’s new adventures. Beddor grabs the imagination and refuses to let go until the reader is pulled as deeply into the adventure as Alyss herself. The worst part, of course, will be the wait for the next book.”
“I have loved Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland since before I could talk… I gotta say my favorite is Frank Beddor’s The Looking Glass Wars Series.”
“Beddor challenges the delicate relationship between truth and fiction, reality and fantasy. And he does so with an interesting take on what such question can ultimately do to the mind of those that fail to believe in and trust in themselves and what they know to be true.”
