One vow. One curse. One thousand moons.

While Princess Aowyn's six brothers are favored by their father, Aowyn is the jewel in her mother's crown. When the queen dies, Aowyn takes a vow to protect her brothers and father from the hungry eyes of the queen's handmaiden, Ciatlllait - who is more than what she seems.

In order to save her family, Aowyn risks a dangerous deal with the dark creature Sylas Mortas. But magic comes with a price, and Aowyn soon realizes the one she has paid is too steep.

Only true love can reverse the spell...but it will take 1,000 moons.

Set in a Celtic world, Moonlight is the story of faith and true love woven through a breathtaking retelling of the classic folktale "The Swan Princess".

I didn't know exactly what I was getting with this one. I chose it because of the cover (pretty swans!) and the title. Overall, I enjoyed the story. It made me a bit nostalgic because I had a book with the original fairy tale when I was little. My only complaint was that the narrator seemed a bit flat at times. She did individual voices, and that was great, but when it came to the actual story narration, I would have liked more inflections. Even so, I don't regret listening to it, it was entertaining.

Nice retelling of the original fairy tale

Everything felt rushed, there was very little character development, and the time jumps felt abrupt and disorienting. The romance was alright, but I had trouble getting particularly invested in it. I didn’t hate it, but I can’t think of many redeeming elements in this book.
I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

She really hit to the heart of the Swan Princess. I love the love story with the Prince.

I think for me the struggle was listening to it with different words and names. I had a hard time following who was who. but I think reading it will help, being able to see the names. at first I was annoyed that it seemed to follow the story brave or even swan princess. but when it changed. lost interest a little in the middle but picked up at the end. lots of change and twisting. enough to keep me going bit not enough to say I loved it.

Such a beautiful and haunting story. Fantastic writing. The lyrical way the words flowed reminded me of Shannon Hale's Books of Bayern. The narrator's slight accent added another lovely layer. Great listen!

I did not read book one but I found quickly that book two stands well on it's own. I am not overly familiar with the Swan Princess but from what I do know this story has such a large departure in plot from that tale that I would say it's very much a new fairytale. It's a quick read with an eerie heartbreaking feel that leaves you searching for the "happily ever after." A great read for fairytale lovers and older elementary/middle grade readers on up.

Parents- PG
Language- Gods, minimal language
Violence- normal to genre, battle scenes but not over graphic
Sexual Content- none, mild romance

Narrator- Better at 1.2x speed, had good differentiation but a bit flat when not in character
