A tale of twelve princesses doomed to dance until dawn.
Galen is a young soldier returning from war; Rose is one of twelve princesses condemned to dance
each night for the King Under Stone. Together Galen and Rose will search for a way to break the
curse that forces the princesses to dance at the midnight balls. All they need is one invisibility
cloak, a black wool chain knit with enchanted silver needles, and that most critical ingredient of
all - true love - to conquer their foes in the dark halls below. But malevolent forces are working
against them above ground as well, and as cruel as the King Under Stone has seemed, his wrath is
mere irritation compared to the evil that awaits Galen and Rose in the brighter world above.
Captivating from start to finish, Jessica Day George's take on the Grimms' tale The Twelve Dancing
Princesses demonstrates yet again her mastery at spinning something entirely fresh out of a story
you thought you knew.
