Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Growing up, young Gaston and the prince were brothers in all but blood. Their boyhood adventures led them throughout the many rooms of the castle and into the deep woods beyond. The woods that were home to the legendary Beast of Gevaudan.

Then one fateful night, a violent tragedy changed their lives—and their friendship—forever, sending each of them down a very different path. The prince, as we know, paid a price for his wicked ways. And Gaston, fuelled by the magic of three meddling witches, grew ever more haunted by a single desire: to become the hero who killed the Beast.

Kill the Beast: A Tale of Gaston and A Beast (Disney Villains #11) is a captivating story that explores the deeper intricacies of Gaston's desire for heroism, driven by dark influences, in a world where fairy tales take unexpected twists.
