Golden Globe winning actor and star of ‘Glee’, Chris Colfer, has debuted at the top of the New York Times bestsellers list with his first book ‘Land of Stories’.
Expressing his joy, Chris tweeted “#TheLandOfStories is debuting at #1 on the New York Times Best Seller’s list!!! Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine this. Thanks you!!!”
The Land of Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Conner. Through the mysterious powers of a cherished book of stories, they leave their world behind and find themselves in a foreign land full of wonder and magic where they come face-to-face with the fairy tale characters they grew up reading about. But after a series of encounters with witches, wolves, goblins, and trolls alike, getting back home is going to be harder than they thought.
Chris Colfer’s success as an author comes on the back on an already impressive year for the young gay actor, which saw his film ‘Struck By Lightning’ receive critical acclaim at the Tribeca Film Festival.
