The Silvered Serpents by author Roshani Chokshi

the family goodfolke

A hilarious, heartwarming new middle-grade fantasy adventure starring a half-fairy, half-human family from bestselling author Roshani Chokshi, perfect for fans of Impossible Creatures and The Swifts.
 
Eleven-year-old Bug Goodfolke knows her family isn’t normal. Her father is an exiled fairy prince, her mother is a human lawyer who (literally) has eyes on the back of her head, and there’s a portal to Faerie in their home that’s strictly off limits. While Bug loves their in-between life, she can’t resist wondering about the magical world just on the other side.
 
So, when her older sister Vesper decides to sneak into Faerie to reconcile with their royal family, Bug follows. There, the sisters encounter a world of marvels, from flying aurora horses to a book wyrm with pages for scales, while also dodging mischief from their estranged uncle. As it turns out, families are tricky, fairy ones even more so, and soon Bug will have to make a choice that will change the fate of their family—and Faerie—forever.

praise for the family goodfolke

My new favourite fantasy series. Buy fresh batteries for your torch! This one’s an all-nighter!”
– Eoin Colfer, New York Times bestselling author of the Artemis Fowl series

Hilarious, heartwarming, compulsively page-turning — the Family Goodfolke overflows with magic and adventure. As soon as you step through this door into Faerie, you will NOT want to come back. Consider yourself warned.”
– Rick Riordan, New York Times bestselling author of the Percy Jackson series

A story that’s truly special. Each page makes you giggle, gasp, and race to the next to find out what wonders lie ahead. The world of faerie feels both familiar and refreshing, and the characters feel real and relatable. I have zero doubt this is the beginning of something absolutely epic!”
– Shannon Messenger, New York Times bestselling author of The Keeper of the Lost Cities

The Family Goodfolke is whimsical and kindhearted, alive with all the wonder and capriciousness of Faerie — and altogether brilliant.”  
– Holly Black, #1 New York Times bestselling author 

A riot of magic, mischief, and laugh-out-loud chaos, THE FAMILY GOODFOLKE is a fantasy young readers will want to disappear into, and a family they’ll be reluctant to leave behind. Chokshi brings wit and whimsy to a deeply relatable story about the bonds between sisters and the impossible task of figuring out where one belongs when they come from two different worlds. Chokshi’s Faerie kingdom bursts off the page with dazzling creatures and clever enchantments around every corner, making the world feel as expansive as it is original. A rollicking start to an irresistible new series, THE FAMILY GOODFOLKE promises plenty more mayhem and adventure to come.” 
– Soman Chainani, New York Times bestselling author of The School For Good and Evil series and Young World

A laugh out loud, whimsical journey that will leave you wanting to go on adventures with Bug and Vesper forever.  The Family Goodfolke is filled with rich world building, memorable characters and a lot of heart.” 
– Claribel Ortega, New York Times bestselling author of the Witchings series
