Publisher's Summary

There is a story of a beast, and a merchant's daughter, and a curse that must be broken.

This is not - quite - that story.

Amber Gryce believes in magic the way anyone does: as a thing of the past, marked now only by the long reign of an ancient queen sworn to live until her stolen son is returned to her. Such stories are romantic but distant for Amber, surrounded by family and wealth.

But like magic, wealth can disappear. Left destitute, Amber's family retreats to a forest holding far from their city home, where Amber's love of roses leads her into the heart of enchantment, and draws her into a retelling of the tale as old as time....

Loved it

I loved this take on Beauty and the Beast, almost as good as Robin McKinley’s which I have loved for many years. I would recommend it to anyone who loves the fairy tale.

Great story

Interesting version of Beauty and the beast. The narrator's voice was slightly annoying but didn't detract from the story.

A little boring

Stopped listening 20 minutes in.

The narrator was ok, however, the storyline was lacklustre so I can't blame her for her performance.
