The Princess Spy was a retelling of The Princess and the Frog. Which was one
fairy tale I never really liked. But I loved this retelling. Colin the hero of
this novel is the grandson of the hero of The
Merchant's daughter and Margaretha is the younger sister of the heroes from
The Captive Maiden and The Fairest Beauty.
In The Princess Spy the
princess moves a little bit beyond the traditional fairy tale role. To the
point that in many ways she becomes a hero in her own right. Proving that she's more than a pretty face.
I enjoyed this book and there was a scene in chapter eight that
reminded me a bit of The Princess Bride. Melanie's books keep getting better. I
can't wait for her next book.
