This book is fabulous and the cover is gorgeous. This is one of those stories you don't forget in a hurry … a cross between a fairy tail and a fantasy. Even though so many of the characters had hard to pronounce names, nevertheless I never once lost track of any of them . I was riveted from the start of the book.
This is the first in a duology set in the Kingdom of Solanum. Its nobles have the ability to shape-shift at will into the bird that represents their family bloodline. After the death of her father seventeen-year-old Aderyn inherits the role of Protector of Atratys. Aderyn's ancestral bird is a swan, yet since witnessing the brutal death of her mother some years previously she hasn’t been able to transform.
The Throne of Swans is beautifully written and I can't recommend it highly enough. Fabulous!!
