Posted on January 26, 2012

Chris Colfer, known to many as Kurt Hummel on Fox's Glee, signed a two book deal with Little, Brown Books last June for a children's fantasy series. The cover for the first book in the series, The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell, has been released. The cover is illustrated by Brandon Dorman.

The Land of Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Conner Bailey. The twins leave their world behind and find themselves in a foreign land full of wonder and magic. The characters come face-to-face with the characters they grew up reading about, including witches, wolves, goblins, and trolls.

EW reports that the publication date for the book has also been moved up from August 7 to July 17.
