She’s never been invited in the past, but amazingly enough, this is her year. Now it seems that she will have to put any ambitions of going there aside in preparation for an arranged marriage she never wanted in the first place. It is a performance that happens once a year very far away and the audience participates in it as well. Scarlett wants nothing more than to see Caraval. Her father has arranged Scarlett’s marriage and now Scarlett thinks that her dreams might be done for. Scarlett lives on the tiny island with her sister Tella and their father, who is powerful and cruel. She has never actually set foot off of the small island where she lives. Scarlett Dragna is the main character in this story. Readers will love the novel that others are calling enchanting, mysterious, decadent, intoxicating, inventive, delightful, and darkly magical. In her debut fantasy novel Caraval, Garber takes readers on a whirlwind ride through a fantasy world. 20th Century Fox picked up the film option for Caraval and no doubt there will be a bevy of interest in any books that Garber pens in the time to come. Not only have the Caraval novels done well, but buyers are interested in the film rights to her novels too.

But this festival may be more than it appears to be, and before they know it the girls are caught up in the mysterious and intoxicating world of Caraval. They dream about getting away, and when they get an invitation to participate in a strange but one-of-a-kind show, they jump at the chance. The series features the main characters of Scarlett and Tella Dragna, who live a sad existence with their father on the island. The first novel in the series has the same name– Caraval. Stephanie Garber is the author of the popular Caraval series, a fantasy series intended for young adults (although anyone can read it!). She likes to make games out of assignments as well as take her students occasionally on field trips that may or may not involve going to book signings of authors. When she is not busy doing that, she teaches students creative writing in northern California at a private college.


Gerber enjoys penning fantasy books for young adults. Stephanie says that she loves Disneyland so much because it is actually the one place that she feels like the fantastical stories and characters that she enjoys writing about so much could actually come off of the page and to life. She is probably best known for her exciting and highly fantasy-based fictional series of novels, the Caraval Series. Stephanie Garber is an American author of fiction.
