The Wizard's Bakery

"獲獎無數、令人震驚的韓國暢銷書——一個關於魔法與代價的獨特故事。
「我們不都是偶爾需要一點魔法的人嗎？」

在首爾一個寧靜街區裡，有一家二十四小時營業的「巫師烘焙坊」，看似和一般麵包店無異，販售著麵包、蛋糕和甜點，櫃檯後則站著一位有些暴躁的男人。
對於一位絕望逃家的少年來說，這裡是一個逃離破碎家庭的避風港——直到他發現這些甜點竟然擁有魔力：可修補心碎的瑪德蓮蛋糕、能喚醒深埋記憶的杏仁棒，以及專治死對頭的肉桂餅乾。
然而，每一樣魔法甜點都附帶警告：其中蘊含的力量會不可避免地改變世界的秩序，並對食用者造成戲劇性的後果——這些後果必須被審慎地衡量。
在這位嚴厲的巫師店主與神祕藍髮助手的監督下，少年漸漸理解了在這家每一口甜點都要付出代價的烘焙坊工作所需承擔的責任。"

The award-winning, fantastical Korean bestseller, a unique tale where magic comes at a price

'Don't we all need a little magic in our lives sometimes?'

Open twenty-four hours a day in a quiet Seoul neighbourhood, The Wizard's Bakery seems like any other where you can buy bread, cakes, and pastries, with a somewhat grumpy man behind the counter.

For a desperate runaway teen, it's a refuge from a fractured home - until he discovers the pastries hold magic: madeleines to fix broken hearts, almond bars to unearth memories buried deep within and cinnamon cookies for your worst enemies.

But each of these items come with a warning: the power contained in the treats inevitably alters the order of the world and can produces dramatic consequences for those who consume them, consequences that need to be weighed carefully.

Under the stern eye of the bakery's gruff wizard and his mysterious blue-haired assistant, the boy learns about the responsibility that comes with working in a bakery where every bite comes with a price.
