Waiting on Wednesday #11

Hosted over at Breaking the Spine

Princess of the Silver Woods
by Jessica Day George
date of publication: Nov 13, 2012

When Petunia, the youngest of King Gregor’s twelve dancing daughters, is invited to visit an elderly friend in the neighboring country of Westfalin, she welcomes the change of scenery. But in order to reach Westfalin, Petunia must pass through a forest where strange two-legged wolves are rumored to exist. Wolves intent on redistributing the wealth of the noble citizens who have entered their territory. But the bandit-wolves prove more rakishly handsome than truly dangerous, and it’s not until Petunia reaches her destination that she realizes the kindly grandmother she has been summoned to visit is really an enemy bent on restoring an age-old curse.

The stories of Red Riding Hood and Robin Hood get a twist as Petunia and her many sisters take on bandits, grannies, and the new King Under Stone to end their family curse once and for all.

  2. I love retellings, and this one seems to turn two well-known fairy tales on their ears!

    Great pick!

    I have read the first two books this week (so If you like, you can check my reviews on them ^^) and I loved them! I really can't wait for this one. I'm such a sucker/fan/obsessed kind of person for fairytales and retellings, haha.
