But they made one terrible mistake— they released the undying witch Nimiane. Her goal? To drain all life from every world connected to the cupboards. Henry must seek out the Chestnut King to defeat her, but doing so comes at a price—one that will force Henry to make a terrible, irreversible choice.

For readers of the 100 Cupboards trilogy, THE CHESTNUT KING is a compelling and satisfying end to the story. After discovering 99 doors to distant worlds in his bedroom, Henry York has unintentionally awoken an ancient evil in the form of the witch Nimiane. Russell Horton narrates in a voice that is equal parts gentle and menacing as the story travels through multiple worlds towards Henry's confrontation with the Chestnut King, who, for a price, may offer some help defeating Nimiane. Horton's deliberate pauses and inflections add suspense to this epic fantasy as Henry, his family, and his friends fight to save themselves and preserve the worlds they have grown to love. E.A.B.
