The Fairest Beauty
is the sequel in many senses to The
Healer’s Apprentice Gabehart or Gabe is Rose and Wihelm’s son. He decides
against his parents’ wishes to go recue Duke Baldwin’s daughter Sophie who just
happens to be his brother’s bride to be.
The Fairest Beauty
is a retelling of Snow White. That I enjoyed more the actual fairy tale I love
that Melanie focuses on faith in God and Jesus as the ones who help to fight
off evil. Not the magic that is in the fairy tales that her novels are based
on.
I think this cover is just gorgeous! Can't wait to read it myself. :)
ReplyDeleteThe book is awesome so far I've loved all of Melanie's fairy tale retellings. They are far better in my opinion than the original stories.
