Her twin sister, Taryn, gets the chance to explain what happened from her side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Jude was fighting Prince Cardan, trying to gain respect, and looking for power in the Court of Elfhame, Taryn was dealing with a very different problem. She was falling in love with Locke, a clever and dangerous faerie who enjoyed games, secrets, and tricks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story is written as part apology and part explanation from Taryn to Jude. Taryn reveals secrets, choices, and feelings that readers did not fully understand while reading \u003cem\u003eThe Cruel Prince\u003c\/em\u003e. Holly Black officially describes The Lost Sisters as a companion e-novella to \u003cem\u003eThe Cruel Prince\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSee The Cruel Prince Through Taryn’s Eyes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you finished \u003cem\u003eThe Cruel Prince\u003c\/em\u003e and wondered why Taryn made some of her choices, this short story gives you important answers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJude and Taryn are twins, but they want very different things from life in Faerie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJude wants strength.
