Rendition During Books Princess of the Wild Swans (Fairy Tale Princesses)

Based on Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Wild Swans,” this enchanting fantasy by Diane Zahler, author of The Thirteenth Princess and A True Princess, is a tale of family, bravery . . . and a terrible spell.

Princess Meriel’s brothers have been cursed. An evil enchantment cast by their conniving new stepmother has transformed the handsome princes into swans. They now swim forlornly on a beautiful heart-shaped lake that lies just beyond the castle walls.

Meriel will do whatever it takes to rescue her beloved brothers. But she must act quickly. If Heart Lake freezes, her brothers will be forced to fly south or perish.

With help from her newfound friends Riona and Liam—a beautiful half-witch and her clever brother—Meriel vows to finish a seemingly impossible task. If she completes it, her brothers may be saved. But if she fails . . . all will be lost.

Judgment About Books Princess of the Wild Swans (Fairy Tale Princesses)

For as long as I remember I've loved HCA's story "The Wild Swans." It's a lovely tale of sibling love and doesn't seem to moralize as much as some. So I try to read the adaptations (which are much less plentiful than "Cinderella"). I've tried The Swan Kingdom, and Daughter of the Forest and found much to admire and some to dislike. In keeping with that childish love, I decided to read this one.This adaptation didn't really please me. I might have been the wrong age for it (it really seemed aimed

Twelve-year-old Princess Meriel is the only girl in a family with five older brothers. Her mother died when she was very young, so it has just been Meriel, her brothers, and their father, the King, for as long as she can remember. Then one day her father returns home with a new wife, Lady Orianna. From the start, Meriel hates Lady Orianna. She doesn't trust her, especially after overhearing her argue with her father over the fact that if she has a son, he will never be king with five older

What an enchanting read! I love a well written fairy tale re-telling and Diane has done a wonderful job with her story of Meriel and her brothers whom are all turned into swans. I really enjoyed being swept away with the classic fairytale aspect of this story. There's magic, danger, a lovely, well written innocent romance, witches and fey lore. Plus I love that it takes a Princess and good hearted towns people to bring down a wicked, evil witch.Princess Meriel is a fabulously written, strong

Not one of my favorite Fairy Tale re-tellings, not enough character development and story telling for me. But not terrible. Made it to number 4 for my 10 year old avid reader's top ten books. She is reading it aloud now to her younger sister (who shares the name of the heroine).

I JUST DIED OMG THIS WAS MY FAVORITE BOOK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND I FOUND IT??? OMGGGG

It's more of a 3 and half stars for me. I would maybe read it again.

4.5 stars
