Wondrous

Timed to the 75th anniversary of Alice In Wonderland, this sequel follows teenage Alice on a curious new adventure down the rabbit hole as she arrives to find someone else claiming to be the Alice. Years after her first tumble down the rabbit hole, Alice returns to Wonderland for good. As a young woman with limited options in 19th-century London, only Wonderland can grant her the freedom she craves, like the chance to open a travelling magical tea shop. Alice expects madness from familiar faces like the Mad Hatter, March Hare and the Cheshire Cat, but she doesn't expect to meet another real-world teenager - one who claims she is the 'true' Alice and the first adventurer to explore Wonderland. Soon, the Queen of Hearts' soldiers capture both girls and bring them to the castle, and more startling truths come to light: dozens of other so-called 'Alices' have appeared in Wonderland, too. Based on a strange prophecy, the Queen believes one Alice is destined to save Wonderland from three ghastly mock dragons who have invaded from another realm. Whoever can stop them will be named 'The Alice', while the others will be exiled, never allowed to return. Determined to secure Wonderland's future and her own, Alice sets out on a daring quest, equipped with only her enchanted tea set. Hesitant to trust any other Alices, she forms a tenuous alliance with a strange boy connected to the fearful jabberwocks of lore. But is Alice truly the Alice in Wonderland, or a mere footnote in another heroine's story?
