Zarra and the Twelve Realms of Kayangan

Forced to work for her aunt like a modern-day Cinderella, twelve-year-old Zarra Nuraman thinks her life is awful until one day her fairy ‘godmother’ turns up and kidnaps Zarra’s baby cousin.

Zarra follows her cousin and ends up in Kayangan – a parallel universe filled with the characters of the Malaysian folktales she grew up with.

In this land where magic fairy coats and were-crocodiles exist, and where even saying the wrong thing can kill you, Zarra is being hunted by the evil Queen Zamrud.

With the help of the Border Guardians, Khai and Amir, and a magic Bidari coat which can transport her anywhere she wants, Zarra has three days to rescue her cousin, and in the process discovers a secret which changes her life.
