A Dream of Ebony and White: A Retelling of Snow White by Melanie Cellier

4.0

Snow White serves as the inspiration for some of my favorite fairytale retellings, so of course I enjoyed Cellier's spin on the classic. There was a good balance of intrigue and action along with the romance plot. I enjoy the allegorical elements woven into all of these interconnected series and thought they were well done in this installment; I'm happy any time the High King is mentioned in connection with the godmothers. While parts of the story read a bit young, as Snow is only 16, I also appreciated the hard hitting allusions in dealing with the children who served in the role of the dwarves.
