Beyond the Happily Ever After: A World Divided
What happens to villains after they're defeated in fairy tales? Melissa de la Cruz's "The Isle of the Lost" provides a fascinating answer: they're exiled to a prison island, stripped of their magical powers, and forced to live under a magical dome. Twenty years ago, when Beast became king of Auradon, he banished all villains to this desolate fortress. Now, Maleficent, Jafar, Cruella De Vil, and the Evil Queen survive on Auradon's castoffs, inhabiting crumbling buildings in perpetual gloom. But the real story begins with a childhood grudge. When the Evil Queen hosted an extravagant birthday party for six-year-old Evie, deliberately excluding Maleficent's daughter Mal, it sparked a feud that would last a decade. Maleficent's furious reaction - cursing the celebration and banishing the Evil Queen and Evie to isolation - planted seeds of bitterness in young Mal's heart, who felt dark satisfaction watching her mother destroy her rival's special day. Across the Sea of Serenity lies Auradon, a prosperous kingdom where Castle Beast stands as a symbol of peace and prosperity. Unlike the gloomy Isle, Auradon enjoys perfect weather, manicured gardens, and harmonious citizens. Here, fifteen-year-old Prince Ben prepares to become king at sixteen - the youngest coronation in history. Blessed with his father's commanding presence and his mother Belle's gentle demeanor, Ben navigates his first political challenge: addressing grievances from "Sidekicks United." While reviewing their petition, Ben finds himself distracted by vivid dreams of a purple-haired girl moving through a crumbling village. These visions trouble him not just for their intensity but because they feel more authentic than his carefully orchestrated life, including his relationship with Princess Audrey, Sleeping Beauty's daughter.
