King Midas rules a prosperous kingdom and possesses all that a man could desire-except enough gold. When a wandering god offers him a single wish, Midas asks for the power to turn everything he touches into pure, gleaming gold.
At first, it's a dream come true: roses shimmer, furniture glows, and his palace transforms into a hall of brilliance. But as his golden gift spreads, Midas soon discovers that beauty can become a burden-and some things, once turned to gold, can never be brought back.
A haunting tale of desire gone too far, King Midas and the Golden Touch is the story of a king who learns too late the true cost of his wish.
