Every night, Princess Thea and her six sisters are cursed to dance with a dragon prince. Now the princess is determined to break this curse on the royal children, while new palace guard Athdar also finds himself drafted to solve the mystery. In Wrought of Silver and Ravens, E. J. Kitchens adapts the “Twelve Dancing Princesses” tale into a rich high-fantasy world, full of political intrigue and compelling characters. Magic waltzes from each page to be gathered up into an enchanting story of secrets, adventure, found family, and a sprinkling of romance.

Best for: Fans of high fantasy and fairy-tale retellings.

Discern: Characters who use magic, some incidents of prejudice based on genetics (such as magical races), fantasy violence with sword and magic fights.
