New York Times Best Seller!

Fans of dark fairy tales like The Hazel Wood and The Cruel Prince will relish this atmospheric and absorbing audiobook based on Guillermo del Toro’s critically acclaimed movie.

Oscar winning writer-director Guillermo del Toro and bestselling author Cornelia Funke have come together to transform del Toro’s hit movie Pan’s Labyrinth into an epic and dark fantasy novel for listeners of all ages, with enchanting short stories that flesh out the folklore of this fascinating world.

This spellbinding tale takes listeners to a sinister, magical, and war-torn world filled with richly drawn characters like trickster fauns, murderous soldiers, child-eating monsters, courageous rebels, and a long-lost princess hoping to be reunited with her family.

A brilliant collaboration between masterful storytellers that’s not to be missed.

“Perfectly unsettling and deeply felt, this reminded me of the best kind of fairytales wherein each chapter is a jewel that, when held up to the light, reframes how we see the world around us.” (Roshani Chokshi, New York Times best-selling author of The Star-Touched Queen and Aru Shah and the End of Time)

“A fearless and moving adaption of the film, and a gorgeously written, emotional, frightening parable about the courage of young women amid the brutality of war.” (Michael Grant, New York Times best-selling author of Gone)

Helps to understand the movie better

I loved this movie so when I saw this novelization I purchased it. I listened to it during a recent backpacking trip. This was very close to the book with the addition of multiple fairy tales which help to explain how the tasks were developed. Now I want to watch the movie again as I had missed details described in the book. Fun listen. My only criticism is the narrator's accent was occasionally difficult to understand.

if you like the movie read the book

I bought this book and hopes of sharing the story with my husband who has a hard time reading subtitles in films Pants labyrinth is one of my favorite films and I wanted to share the story with him he thoroughly enjoyed it and is trying to give the movie a chance I on the other hand enjoyed the deeper depth of Ophelia and the labyrinth reading this book was a lot like going through a labyrinth many twists and turns when you think it's going one way you turn the corner and it's another story that I'll connect in the end just like a labyrinth would definitely recommend this to anyone

just beautiful

everything about this story was beautiful,. it was heart wrenching and built a beautiful world

Excellent

Great story! Beautiful symbolism and profound contrast between good and evil. Highly recommend both movie and book.

Mesmerizing

Beautiful, captivating and heartbreaking.
This will be forever a favorite Fairy Tale in my library.

Better than expected

Good movie, better book. Fantastic from start to finish, expands on the universe and connects characters in ways not seen before.

An enchantingly dark fairytale

This novelization is absolutely fantastic. Essential it’s the extended director’s cut of the film. It adds so much more to the already beautifully grim world of the film.

Better then expected

I love how my hubby has never read the book, and only pay half attention to the movie ... yet he kept telling me the book was wrong... Great story ... I believe in magic ... do you?

Loved it

Man I wish I had come across the book before the movie. Not too different from the movie but it would have been wonderful to see such a good story come to life. Either way I enjoyed this throughly.

Lovely and filled with wonderment

I adore this story,the movie and book of the Pans Labyrinth. I love the voice used in this audiobook. You can feel every emotion. Everything is brought to life. Will def be listening to this every so often.
