Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's pick is Prince of Song and Sea by Linsey Miller
Here is the Goodreads synopsis
For fans of Twisted Tales and Villains is a brand new YA series that retells the classic Disney stories you thought you knew from the Disney Princes' perspectives.Before Prince Eric’s mother, the Queen of Vellona, went missing two years ago, she reminded him about the details of the deadly curse that has plagued his entire life. The curse? If he were to kiss someone other than his true love, he would die. With a neighboring kingdom looking for any excuse to invade their shores, and rumors of ghost pirates lurking the seas, Eric is desperate for any information that may help him break his enchantment and bring stability to Vellona. The answers he has been searching for come to him in the form of a letter left from his mother that reveals Eric must find his true love, the one with a voice pure of heart, or kill the sea witch responsible for cursing him in the first place.Now Eric is on a quest to find the Isle of Serein, the witch's legendary home. But after he is rescued by a mysterious young woman with a mesmerizing singing voice, Eric’s heart becomes torn. Does he enter a battle he is almost certain he cannot win or chase a love that might not even exist? And when a shipwrecked young woman with flaming red hair and a smile that could calm the seven seas enters his life, Eric may discover that true love isn’t something that can be decided by magic.
I love Disney. I especially love Disney movies. I was immediately interested in hearing that not only were we getting a new series focused on the perspective of the Disney Princes but that the first one would feature Eric.
The synopsis for this had me even more interested in reading it. The twist that Eric was cursed by the sea witch is certainly intriguing. It makes the events of The Little Mermaid even more interesting from Ursula's perspective at the very least.
This doesn't release until the fall so we have a bit of wait for this one. I am going to spend the time trying to determine which of the princes might be next in the series!
Expected release date - October 4, 2022
