Hey, I may be disturbing you but can you please please upload vivi and heather's (characters from the folk in the Air series by holly black).....short stories the honest folk, from the faires never lie anthology...pretty pleaseeeee

Hey,

Unfortunately I don't have this story. Also the other stories that are in the masterlist I have made, were not shared by me, because I don't have these special editions.

As far as I have googled the story in question, it seems it is available world wide and it is not a special edition only available in US and few other contries. That might be a reason why nobody made photos and shared them here.

But if you find, that someone posted it here, please tag me, so I can add it to the masterlist 😁

[cruelqueen]

Hii. I saw your post about comparing the exclusive editions for folk of the air series. Do you know what is the difference between the waterstones and B&N edition for How the king of elfhame learned to hate stories?

Hi,

I found this on Hollys instagram:

So there should be no interior difference expect maybe that some books are signed.

I hope that helps! 😁

Deleted Scenes From The Cruel Prince

(Some of these are alternate storylines)

These are all of them, both deleted and alternate storyline. I highly recommend buying this TCP edition 🫶🏼 as it comes with gorgeous artwork and a neat velvet cover!

Bitches only want one thing and it's The Cruel Prince trilogy from Cardan's perspective.

It's me. I'm bitches.

The Walmart Exclusive Stolen Heir content

These pictures were courtesy of @airynreads ! Thanks again!

[cruelqueen]

I have a copy of the Walmart Exclusive Stolen Heir content if you want it to post.

Oh wow! Thank you for letting me know!

I think it would be the best, if you also post pictures and then let me know and I will reblog the post and include it in my masterlist. 😁

But if you don't want to, I can also post pictures, if you send them to me via chat.

finally done with them! I have been working on an off this in my spare time which has been limited for a few months. Tried to experiment a bit with texture and lighting.

ok i’m like 2 years late but for the deluxe edition of HTKOELTHS, is there any special content in there? ik you have a list of the ones from tcp, twk, and qon

Hey,

That is a good question. I don't remember seeing any additional stories included in HTKOELTHS editions. But I might be wrong. If you know that there were some, please tell me 😁 any I will try to find it!

Btw today I found out that there is a special content in the stolen heir if you have already read that. I wasnt able to update the masterlist for now, but I have reblogged the post.

[cruelqueen]

Will you be uploading the exclusive content of the Stolen Heir from the Barnes & Noble and Walmart editions?

Hey there!

I haven't read the Stolen yet and I wasn't aware that there is a exclusive content. So thanks for letting me know!

Unfortunately it is quite difficult (or very expensive) for me to get the books with exclusive content, because they are -as far as I know- sold mostly just in the USA. All the exclusive stories that are on the masterlist were uploaded by someone else and I just gathered all the links in one post.

So if you see somewhere the exlusive content from the Stolen Heir, please let me know and I will happily add it to the masterlist. (I will also try to search for it on tumblr. But I don't want to get the book spoiled😅)

[cruelqueen]

Update: I have found the Barnes & Noble exclusive content:

The Stolen Heir Barnes & Noble Bonus Content

Unfortunately it seems I cannot edit the masterlist of the exclusive stories from the phone. I will try to add this link later 😁

Hi Em, Mary here! <3 I have been pondering over a question, and I was curious to see if you have theories on it, because I live for your theories! So, Faeries and Salt do not mix very well at all - Cardan, Locke, Nicasia and Valerian all spat it out when Jude salted their food in TCP. Tiernan explains that it dulls their magic in Stolen Heir. Yet, Nicasia is from the Undersea, and she is surrounded by very salty sea water all the time. What do you think makes the salt in the sea so different to the salt that is poured over food? How is it that Nicasia can breathe and be surrounded by it, without it dulling her magic at all or hurting her? I would be curious to see what you think! Have a wonderful day <3

ahh Mary!! it's so lovely to see you in my inbox 🥹❤️

this is a really good question and genuinely something i've never thought about before. good eye catching that Nicasia spits out the salted food, too.

my best guess (and it is very much a guess) is that perhaps it's a bit like lead to humans. if you touch lead, it's not really going to effect you much. if you ingest lead, however, it can lead to lead poisoning. presumably, in this scenario, magical creatures from the Undersea have evolved some sort of bio-mechanism that prevents salt from effecting them when breathed in.

it may also have something to do with concentration. on a tea cake or crumpet or whatever Nicasia et. al. were having for lunch that day, a handful of salt is going to be pretty evident. but diluted in water, it might not be so toxic.

additionally, the Labrador Sea, which is ostensibly where (or close to where) the Undersea is located, has "relatively low salinity" levels, according to Wikipedia.

and if none of those answers satisfy your curiosity, perhaps consider some sort of magical explanation. this is the Fae we're talking about, after all. perhaps they have some sort of magical desalination process going on that the books, being mostly set on land, could not cover.

–Em 🖤🗡

Has this been done yet?

Y'ALL I JUST REALISED SOMETHING

so in TCP when Jude finds the copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass in Cardan's room, she mentions that they used to have a copy just like it.

"Stuffed into a corner is a copy of a book I know but didn't expect to see here in this place—Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, bound together in one volume. Mom read to us from one a lot like that back in the mortal world. (p. 112, TCP)

she then goes on to mention that she believes Vivi didn't pack the book when they came to Elfhame, and that she hadn't read the story since their mother read it to them at bedtime. this is how she justifies stealing it to herself. (p. 113, TCP)

so in HTKOELTHS we come across the book again, and we discover how Cardan came to own such a mortal book. Rhyia gave it to him during a rare, endearing sibling moment. but THEN, Holly gives us this little easter egg (pg. 74, HTKOELTHS):

it was Vivi who gave Rhyia the book, who gave it to Cardan, who read it and scribbled the infamous JUDEJUDEJUDEJUDEJUDEJUDE on a paper because he was so disgustingly in love with her and obviously thinking about her the entire time while reading the book, who Jude stole it from.

ostensibly, Vivi could have packed the book without the twins knowing, since it's mentioned in TCP that Jude doesn't remember packing. and when she realised the twins were happy in Elfhame, Vivi must have forgotten about the book/given it to Rhyia. which means.....

IT WAS JUDE'S BOOK ALL ALONG Y'ALL I'M SOBBING 😭
