This omnibus edition gathers four of George MacDonald's beloved princess stories, timeless works of fantasy that have delighted young readers for generations.
Collected here in a single volume are The Princess and the Goblin, The Princess and Curdie, The Light Princess, and The Lost Princess: A Double Tale. Together these stories present some of the most imaginative and enduring works in nineteenth-century children's literature.
In The Princess and the Goblin, the young Princess Irene and the brave miner's son Curdie confront a mysterious underground race of goblins plotting mischief beneath the mountains. The adventure continues in The Princess and Curdie, where courage, loyalty, and wisdom are tested as new dangers threaten the kingdom.
The Light Princess offers a whimsical and imaginative tale of a princess cursed with weightlessness, unable to feel the seriousness of life until love and sacrifice begin to transform her enchanted world. Meanwhile, The Lost Princess: A Double Tale explores deeper themes of character and transformation through a richly symbolic fairy story.
George MacDonald's stories helped shape the tradition of modern fantasy and influenced later writers such as C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. These princess tales remain cherished classics, combining adventure, imagination, and moral insight in stories that continue to enchant readers of all ages.
