Review: The Shadow Queen

Title: The Shadow Queen
Author: C.J. Redwine
Publisher: Balzer + Bray Harper Collins
Pages: 387
Synopsis (from GoodReads):
Lorelai Diederich, crown princess and fugitive at large, has one mission: kill the
wicked queen who took both the Ravenspire throne and the life of her father.
To do that, Lorelai needs to use the one weapon she and Queen Irina have in
common—magic. She’ll have to be stronger, faster, and more powerful than Irina, the
most dangerous
sorceress Ravenspire has ever seen.



Rating: 5/5
Snow White retold with Dragons? Yes! I loved this book, I could not put it down.
The twist C.J. put on a traditional story is wonderful. The poisoned apples, a daughter
that cares more about her father and brother than she does herself, and learning what
she can do with her magic. Lorelai flees with her brother leaving their father behind
because he told them to run. They hide in secret from the woman responsible for
the death of their father, and trying to take back what belongs to them.


Lorelai and Leo, with the help of Kol, a Draconi from Eldr; work together to
keep Lorelai hidden from the false queen of Ravenspire, and to keep the spell
Irina put on Kol from killing Lorelai, and take back the crown that is rightfully hers.
