Part one of a haunting manga adaptation of the bestselling Twisted Tale novel Once Upon a Dream, which reimagines the Sleeping Beauty legend through a dark, dream-twisted lens.
What if Sleeping Beauty never woke up?
Princess Aurora is trapped inside a never-ending nightmare-one where she sits upon the throne of a dream kingdom ruled by Maleficent's enchantments. When a mysterious figure disrupts the illusion, Aurora must confront the truth buried deep within her slumber: The real world is not as she remembers, and her memories have been rewritten by dark magic.
To break free, Aurora must navigate a perilous dreamscape, uncover long-buried secrets, and face a destiny far more dangerous than the fairy tale she once lived.
