The Inheritance: Puss in Boots
Once upon a time in a world where magic and technology collide with unexpected consequences…
The cat is caught in a curse with no way out. Not even the death of his hot-tempered owner, the miller, opens an escape route. Instead the youngest of the miller's sons inherits him. Can the cat gain his freedom if he fulfills the boy's unrealizable wish?
What if Charles Perrault hadn't known who or what „Puss in Boots“ really was?
The book includes a bonus story and the original fairy tale.
This fantasy novella series combines sorcery and science. It features retellings of your favorite fairy tales and of tales you've never heard. The fairy tales are suitable for teens and older readers alike, mixing steampunk fiction with magical elements in a fantasy world on threshold of technological advance. If the traditional “once upon a time” opening still captures your imagination, you will love these tales.

About the author
Katharina Gerlach
125 books85 followersKatharina Gerlach was born in Germany in 1968. She and her three younger brothers grew up in the middle of a forest in the heart of the Luneburgian Heather. After romping through the forest with imagination as her guide, the tomboy learned to read and disappeared into magical adventures, past times or eerie fairytale woods.
She didn’t stop at reading. During her training as a landscape gardener, she wrote her first novel, a manuscript full of a beginner’s mistakes. Fortunately, she found books on Creative Writing and soon her stories improved. For a while, reality interfered with her writing but after finishing a degree in forestry and a PhD in Science she returned to her vocation. She likes to write Fantasy, Science Fiction and Historical Novels for all age groups.
At present, she is writing at her next project in a small house near Hildesheim, Germany, where she lives with her husband, three children and a dog.
