The Kingdom Below
Beneath the surface of familiar fairy tales lies a shadowed world, steeped in forgotten bargains and the echoes of ancient magic. In this richly woven fantasy series, Emma Hamm reimagines the folklore we think we know—giving voice to the monsters beneath and the mortals who dare to love them.
The story unfolds in an underworld shaped by both beauty and ruin, where creatures born of myth and curse guard their secrets fiercely. At its heart is a romance that defies kingdoms and curses, told with lyrical prose and an atmospheric pull that lingers long after the final page. There’s a haunting stillness to the world Hamm creates—a place where every whispered promise might come true, and every truth demands a price.
What sets this series apart is not just the allure of forbidden love or the pull of an ancient realm hidden below. It’s the depth of emotion stitched into every encounter, the way each character wrestles with their own darkness, and the slow-burning tension that simmers beneath every exchanged glance and shattered illusion.
The Kingdom Below consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
