Prospero's Daughter is a fantasy trilogy by American writer L. Jagi Lamplighter, consisting of Prospero Lost, Prospero In Hell, and Prospero Regained.

The narrator of the story is Miranda, of The Tempest fame, although she explains that William Shakespeare fictionalized it. Five centuries and several half-siblings later, in a Crossover Cosmology world, Miranda is running Prospero Inc., which keeps elemental powers in check by providing them with such valuable goods as phoenix ash. Her father has left her a message that he is in trouble and she must warn all her siblings that they are in danger.
