The Dancing Princess Review


Kendra has a new fairy tale retelling out! It's a twist on the Twelve Dancing Princesses, and it's definitely an interesting take on it. Check it out!

The Dancing Princess 

A Twist of Adventure #5
Plagued by nightmares for the last few years, Katrine only wanted answers. Instead, she finds herself trapped in a tangled web of melody as she tries to free a cursed king and his brothers. No one deserves existence such as theirs, but dare she risk her very life? 



My Review

Twelve brothers are trapped in a curse. They need a songweaver to free them. Only songweavers have tried, and no one remembers any of them.

Enter Katrine, a girl plagued with strange nightmares, who just might be able to break their curse.

This story was fairly short, but it does well telling the story within the limited space. The worldbuilding is interesting, and I do wish there had been more time to delve into it, but for what space there was, it was good. It's quite different from the fairy tale, from what I can tell, but that didn't make it any less entertaining.

The Dancing Princess is a fun, quick read and a neat twist on a lesser known fairy tale.
