Told as a retelling of swan lake this is a tale of deceit, betrayal and wanting to claim the throne.
Aderyn is a swan. Or at least thats what she wants people to think. In a world where the flightless are nothing more than slaves Aderyn is hiding her lack of flying ability but she has to go to royal court.
I loved this book. I loved the character of Aderyn and how she developed through the story. Starting off as someone who just wanted revenge but evolving into someone stronger and willing to do what she needed to protect her dominion.
I enjoy a good story with royal deceit and betrayal and this did not disappoint. There were a lot of deceitful revelations and surprises, while I did see some coming, others I was genuinely surprised at.
I'm looking forward to book 2.
