In November 2020, How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories, a Cardan-centric novella was released. She aims to turn her life around by securing whatever power she can, and in doing so throws herself into the heart of a battle for control over the future of the crown. In particular, she is sick of being the punching bag of the local bully, Prince Cardan, the cruel youngest son of the soon-to-abdicate king, who singles out her in particular when looking for someone to put down. Growing up a human in the world of faeries, Jude has lived her life as an underdog who keeps her head down to avoid it being chopped off, and is sick of living in fear. The faerie who killed their parents in order to have revenge and reclaim his heir, their older sister, takes responsibility for the children he orphaned, taking Jude and her sister back with him to Elfhame. Jude and her twin Taryn are ordinary human girls whose life is forever altered when their parents are murdered by their mother's first husband. The books in the trilogy are The Cruel Prince, The Wicked King, and The Queen of Nothing. The Folk of the Air is a YA fantasy trilogy by Holly Black and set in the same universe as Modern Faerie Tales.
