The Rose and the Ring by William Makepeace Thackeray
"The Rose and the Ring" by William Makepeace Thackeray is a satirical fantasy written in 1854. In the fictional kingdoms of Paflagonia and Crim Tartary, four royal cousins find their fates entwined with two magical gifts from the Fairy Blackstick—a ring and a rose that make their wearers irresistibly beautiful. As stolen thrones, mistaken identities, and enchanted love complicate courtly life, princes and princesses must navigate deception, exile, and even a den
of lions before discovering their true destinies. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
