About this listen
****
Is true love the greatest form of magic?
Long ago, in a kingdom far away, the magician of tiger castle is on thin ice. Once the greatest in the land, Anatole's spells have dried up. He can't even turn sand into gold anymore. The only one who still believes in him is kind Princess Tullia, and he hopes - for the sake of their friendship - that he can soon redeem himself and stay within the king's court.
When the opportunity arises, Anatole is faced with an impossible decision. Princess Tullia is betrothed to the prince of a rich neighbouring kingdom, an alliance which will save bankrupt Esquaveta and all its citizens. But, Tullia has secretly fallen in love with a lowly apprentice scribe and refuses to wed the prince.
The King tasks Anatole with the most difficult magic of all: an anti-love potion. Anatole can save everything and everyone if he can shatter the young lovers' romance. But, with the fate of the kingdom hanging in the balance, can he achieve it? Can he even bring himself to try? After all, is true love not the purest form of magic?
Told with the same wit and warmth that has made Louis Sachar's books classics of children's literature, The Magician of Tiger Castle is a colourful and enigmatic tale of adventure, love, loss and triumph.

Critic reviews
A medieval fable for the modern age: wise and whimsical, tragic and comic, familiar and strange. I loved it (Alix E. Harrow)
Clever, wistful and lovely in equal measure, this is the kind of book that lodges itself in your heart! (Sarah Beth Durst)
I adored this book. It is undoubtedly a new favourite, perfect for fans of Holes - or for any reader who wants to go on a grand, magical adventure for the sake of true love (Susan Dennard)
While keeping the heart and humanity of Holes, Louis Sachar blazes into the adult space with The Magician of Tiger Castle (Rebecca Thorne)
