wyvernfriend 's review for:
Thorn
by Intisar Khanani
This is a retelling (including someo of the tough parts of the story) of the Goose Girl. And a well told tale this one is. I wanted to press it into the hands of anyone who would sit still for long enough to listen to me once I finished it. I found it hard to put down.
Princess Alyrra suffers under the abuse of her mother and brother and tries to keep herself to herself and enjoys the support of the servants. Somehow she ends up being sent for a marriage alliance to a nearby kingdom but on her way there she is attacked by magic and her identity switched with the girl who should be her lady in waiting. Now she becomes the goose girl. Prince Kestrin is not what she expects and despite the tempation to leave all the pressure and politics of royalty but Prince Kestrin may need her to stay alive.
A good read, and while it's marketed at YA it might be suitable for anyone.
