Coming down from the mountain to a new life in the city is a thrill to Miri. She and her princess academy friends have been brought to Asland to help the future princess Britta prepare for her wedding. There, Miri also has a chance to attend school - at the Queen's Castle. But as Miri befriends students who seem sophisticated and exciting she also learns that they have some frightening plans.

Torn between loyalty to the princess and her new friends' ideas, between an old love and a new crush, and between her small mountain home and the bustling city, Miri looks to find her own way in this new place.

Picking up where Princess Academy left off, and celebrating the joys of friendship, romance and the fate of fairy tale kingdoms, this new book delivers the completely delightful new story that fans have been waiting for.

The writing

Any additional comments?

I liked this book. I prefer a simpler narration. The "songs" and echoes when someone had an inner thought weren't really to my liking.

Shannon Hale is Consistently Good

While Goose Girl is still my favorite of the SH books I’ve read, Palace of Stone did not disappoint. A great listen.

Always a Shannon Hale fan

Story straightforward Revolution and well paced. Hearing the music is great for setting the scenes. Satisfying ending (though Love Interest went from thoughtful to frustratingly vacant)

Audible best for music

Shannon Hale writes lyrically of the lives of young men and women as they are deciding who to be in the world. Palace of Stone continues the tale begun in Princess Academy, allowing us to watch Miri as she acclimates to life in the city and the poltical forces present there. We watch as she learns whom to trust and how to work her way through situations with no clear right or wrong answers. This is a novel for adults of allages, not just young adults.

I enjoyed the first but this one seemed to drone on. It was fair. Stick with the first. I don’t think I will “read “ the third

Carry over of the first
