The Nutcracker Curse

Cursed Fairy Tale, Book 1

De: Margo Ryerkerk

Narrado por: Andy Garcia-Ruse

The Selection meets The Last Unicorn.

Twelve days.

Four realms.

Break the curse.

Or turn into a nutcracker.

I thought I knew the main threat to my freedom.

I was wrong.

At 17 years old, I’m not ready to marry, and yet that’s what I must do as the crown princess of Austria.

But getting to know the foreign princes visiting my kingdom becomes the least of my worries when I touch a bespelled nutcracker and unleash a deadly curse. I have 12 days to feed the nutcracker the magical nut Crackatook. If I fail, my soul will become trapped inside the toy for all eternity, and my body will turn to wood.

Instead of relying on my suitors or the king’s men to find the cure, I saddle my unicorn and sneak out of the palace. My childhood friend Philip insists on tagging along, and soon, we are off to lands filled with mythical creatures.

Will we survive all trials and find the Crackatook in time? Or will my soul become trapped in the nutcracker and my body turn to wood?

Quite unique

I ended up really enjoying this book. At first I felt the idea of making a plot around a nutcracker was random, but it ended up growing on me and it ended up being a good fit for what I was reading for this month (December). It had a great amount of adventure in it with some fantasy elements and a little bit of romance, not a lot to pull away from the story. I felt like the story, again, did get slightly random at times, but I was still able to finish it and enjoy it for what it was.

Not your usual fairy tale.

At first I did not like it but the story grows on you. The heroine grows in the story which is a good thing. I got this book from a contributor and this is my honest and voluntary review.

Great story

An amazing and captivating story. Hopefully, we get more about the stepsister in the future. I loved all the elements of the nutcracker and the feel of a fairytale that were in this book! Clara and Phillip's adventure was spectacular and I love the POV of Griselda! It added a nice twist to the story! I so would recommend this book to family and friends. The narrator did a good job too.

cute story

I felt that this story was geared more towards teen/ young readers with the way it was written, spelling everything out, simple phrases and repetition.

Very good

I really liked The Nutcrackers Curse, it was a good clean story with adventure and magical lands. I love the little things that were pulled in from the classic nutcracker story that I grew up knowing, and how they were incorporated into a new adventure. This story is also clean for younger readers to enjoy as well.

Very well done!

Completely engaging story that is a twist on The Nutcracker story with a coming of age aspect thrown in. Very easy to follow along and entertaining. The performance was well done as each character had a different tone. Highly recommend this!

Amazing

An amazing and captivating story. Hopefully, we get more about the stepsister in the future

A very fun story

I really enjoyed this book.

I loved the trials and how they brought Clara and Philip. I almost cried when Philip sacrificed himself to save his love. This story captured my attention and heart from the start. I cannot wait to read the next installment.

Enjoyed it!

The voice is mesmerising and the story is captivating. A princess's journey to self-recognition and love past the magical realms and the goal of breaking the curse that might trap her forever.

Amazing storyline

This story will keep you guessing and there is something new at every time...
imbedded in is the simple love of a man doomed to not marry the woman. Or will he? 😘
