Brought to you by:1。 A lifelong fascination with ballet。 2。 A writing soundtrack consisting of Taylor Swift's folklore and evermore, and my cat snoring on my office couch。3。 My irritation with Prince Siegfried in the original Swan Lake4。 The Black Swan getting to be her own (terrible) person 5。 And a long-standing crush on Ewan MacGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi The Sorcerer and the Swan Princess took over two years to go from the first inklings to what you see today。 The whole time I've been excited Brought to you by:1。 A lifelong fascination with ballet。 2。 A writing soundtrack consisting of Taylor Swift's folklore and evermore, and my cat snoring on my office couch。3。 My irritation with Prince Siegfried in the original Swan Lake4。 The Black Swan getting to be her own (terrible) person 5。 And a long-standing crush on Ewan MacGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi The Sorcerer and the Swan Princess took over two years to go from the first inklings to what you see today。 The whole time I've been excited to share this unique take on the Rothbart and Odette characters - Dietrich and Aventina。When thinking about which story I'd put my twist on for A Villain's Ever After, I remembered an old concept for Swan Lake。 It was originally for my previous series, Fairytales of Folkshore - but I had no place for it on the timeline。 This is why, while it is set in Folkshore, this story takes place in the past。I was also excited to develop the relationships between all the principal characters, and the motivations of Rothbart turning the Odette-character into a swan and replacing her。 I think you're going to have fun seeing what I did with that idea!Without further ado, I present to you The Sorcerer and the Swan Princess。 As always, I can't wait to hear what you thought! 💫 。。。more

I saw this series quite some time ago already and pre-ordered all the books。 Quite a few have been released already and yet I didn't manage to read any of them。 Until I saw this book on BookSirens and knew I had to grab it。 After all, four days a week I read review copies so this gave me a very good reason to make this book a priority。 And during the day I really felt I was looking forward to start this book and to drown in it。Nothing could have prepared me for how much I would love this book。 T I saw this series quite some time ago already and pre-ordered all the books。 Quite a few have been released already and yet I didn't manage to read any of them。 Until I saw this book on BookSirens and knew I had to grab it。 After all, four days a week I read review copies so this gave me a very good reason to make this book a priority。 And during the day I really felt I was looking forward to start this book and to drown in it。Nothing could have prepared me for how much I would love this book。 That's firstly because this book combines chronic pain with magic in a way that absolutely makes sense without taking away the dreams people with chronic pain have。 Since I also have chronic pain in my right leg it was so great to finally meet a heroine like me, who doesn't let the pain define her, who isn't cured, but who does get the chance to do what I want to do too: Fly。On top of that the setting of this book was amazing! I don't want to give too much away, but this book actually had EVERYTHING I love so much。 And not only when it comes to setting, but also when it comes to a lot of other things。 The book had royal court drama, the book had complicated and backstabbing politics, the book had things not being as they seemed and the book had intelligent characters using their brain to solve issues。The book also has an amazing, wonderful and very well written romance。 I'm a hopeless romantic and as long as there is some magic I can fall in love with a lovestory easily, but this book was really the kind of lovestory I love most of all。 The build up was slow, the characters really had to get to know each other, understanding each other took time and love was something they both had to work for。 But when everything eventually DOES come together it's simply glorious! I think I have the first book in Tempest's other Fairytale series on my Kindle already。 I'll put it a little higher on my TBR! 。。。more

They are fantastic retellings of fairytales with such interesting twists。 The Sorcerer and the Swan Princess is the 9th book in the multiple author A Villain's Ever After series。 The Sorcerer and the Swan is a retelling of Swan Lake, but it has a twist。 This story is different from what has been told for years。 It is a thrilling book about seeing behind the darkness。 tPrincess Aventina is ready to ascend to the throne and become the best queen she can be to help her people。 However, all of her plans are thrown aside when she finds herself a swan。 She is taken by the sorcerer who cursed her, Lord Von Rothbart, but she is determined to find her way home。 But as she spends time with Lord Von Rothbart, Dietrich, she finds that all was not as it seemed。 She finds herself falling for the man hidden behind the masks he wearstAventina was such an interesting character。 She was the perfect daughter who was ready to ascend to the throne。 I really liked Ava’s growth as a character。 She grew up and learned from her mistakes。 She had been told her whole life that magic was evil, but as she spent time with the man who cursed her, she learned that all was not as it should be。 I thought that Ava was really cool and it was sweet to read about her falling in love with Dietrich。 Ava had to learn how to get back up after falling and how to fly again。 tI liked Dietrich from the beginning。 He had a hidden kindness behind his sorcery。 He didn’t want to hurt others, but he also needed to care for those around him。 I loved his character and how he wanted to help Ava even though she was mad at him。 However, Dietrich had to work though his own demons of the past。 He wanted to make the world safe for his people, but he was also scared。 He was willing to risk it all to save those under his care。 tAva and Dietrich were such fun and interesting characters。 There were so many hidden aspects about them that they hid from the world。 I loved reading about them falling in love and fighting for what is right。 I was amazed by the evil of the people around them, and the villain was kind of a surprise。 But I adored the storyline and I read this novella in one day!tThe Sorcerer and the Swan Princess is definitely a must read! It was such a cool look at Swan Lake! I loved the characters and I could not put the book down。 I am excited to read what Tempest writes next。 The Sorcerer and the Swan Princess is a clean fairy tale retelling。 I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author。 All views expressed are only my honest opinion, I was not required to write a positive review。 。。。more
