The School for Good and Evil #2: A World without Princes

Now a Netflix Originals Movie

By Soman Chainani, Iacopo Bruno

THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL is the #1 movie now streaming on Netflix—starring Academy Award winner Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Laurence Fishburne, Michelle Yeoh, Sofia Wylie, Sophie Anne Caruso, Jamie Flatters, Earl Cave, Kit Young, and many others! 

In the New York Times bestselling sequel to Soman Chainani’s debut, The School for Good and Evil, Sophie and Agatha are back in Gavaldon, living out their Happily Ever After, but life isn’t quite the fairy tale they expected. 

Witches and princesses reside at the School for Girls, where they’ve been inspired to live a life without princes, while Tedros and the boys are camping in Evil’s old towers. A war is brewing between the schools, but can Agatha and Sophie restore the peace? Can Sophie stay good with Tedros on the hunt? And whose heart does Agatha’s belong to—her best friend or her prince?

Soman Chainani has created a spectacular world that Newbery Medal-winning author Ann M. Martin calls “a fairy tale like no other, complete with romance, magic, humor, and a riddle that will keep you turning pages until the end.”


  • Princes vs Princesses: The School for Good and Evil has been divided. Witches and princesses have created a School for Girls, convinced they don’t need princes—but Prince Tedros and the boys are ready for a war.
  • Friendship or True Love?: Agatha thought she had her happy ending. Now she must choose between her best friend, Sophie, and the prince who holds her heart.
  • The Battle for Good and Evil: Sophie is determined to stay Good now that she’s home in Gavaldon. But as the conflict escalates, she discovers the line between saint and sinner is thinner than she ever imagined.
  • A Fairy Tale Like No Other: This bestselling sequel is packed with the epic magic, thrilling adventure, and witty humor that made Ann M. Martin declare it a series like no other.
