When fairy tales fall into darkness, heroes are born from fire and shadow.

When Isabella Christensen followed her best friend, Alyssa Montague, down the rabbit hole into a realm of myths and monsters, she never imagined how deeply Wonderland would change her. Alyssa may be the descendant of the original Alice, but Isabella soon learns her own ties to this world run far deeper—and the darkness rising there is far deadlier than any storybook could tell.

Armed with the Scepter of Fire, Alyssa has vanquished the Red King, restoring balance to the realm of Artemysia. But peace never lasts. A vengeful enemy, long thought destroyed, has returned to reclaim power and spread chaos across the land.

Haunted by prophetic dreams and guided by Alexi Tovin—a proud, battle-scarred Elven commander—Isabella must join Alyssa and a new generation of heroes in a fight that spans both dream and reality. As destiny calls and ancient forces awaken, the Three will rise again… but the price of victory may be more than any of them can bear.

In Dark Rising: Through the Looking Glass, J.G. Sauer crafts a lush, cinematic romantasy that bridges worlds of myth and magic. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Elise Kova, and Holly Black, this reimagined Wonderland brims with passion, danger, and destiny—where every choice could change the fate of both realms forever.
