Sixteen-year-old Iduna harbors a dark secret. On the surface, she is an Arendellian village girl, an aspiring inventor, and the best friend of Prince Agnarr, but she is also secretly Northuldra.

No matter that the Northuldra - along with some of Arendelle’s own - have been trapped in the Enchanted Forest behind an impenetrable wall of mist since the day of the battle.

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was 10, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself—and his dad. Then, when Charlie is 17, he meets a dog named Radar and his aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it.

Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

As a boy, he was forced to watch his mother's execution. Her crime? Witchcraft. Understandably, Trip wants nothing to do with the power that lurks within him, always threatening to reveal itself. Instead, he dedicates himself to serving as an officer in the king's army, to battling pirates and imperial conquerors. He longs to become a soldier as respected and renowned as General Zirkander.

Publisher's summary
Once upon a time, my life was certain: It was insignificant, and it was cruel. But I refused to let it define me, no matter how great the cost.
Once upon a time, I made a wish. The world I knew grew wider than the sky and higher than the stars, and I listened to the voice within me, reaching out for freedom.
Once upon a time, my wish became my fate, and my destiny the hardest lesson to learn: Kindness may be the most difficult path, but it can save entire kingdoms.

Gen was a bard's apprentice, his nimble hands meant for the lute and his voice for a song. Then the half-mad and completely bored Shadan Khairn invaded Gen's village to winter there and start a war. He shoved a sword in Gen's hands and tormented his body, shaping a bard into a warrior to be killed for sport. As the days of torture pile up like the snow, Gen searches for death. But the day is at hand when the shattered shards of the world will knit together again, and the world's slain god will be reborn.

It seems an unlikely destination for a holiday: a cold, desolate land where two nations remain perpetually locked in combat. Most citizens lucky enough to tour the Continent do so to observe the spectacle and violence of battle, a thing long vanished in the peaceful realm of the Spire.

I have goosebumps!
Starla, you wrote and read a truly Wonderful book... you gave me goosebumps!!! Thank you!
This is only the second tale in this Flipped Fairy Tales and I've gotta say that it's already one of my favorite series! The first book was more or less a retelling of Snow White, with the titular character as a Prince! But, this story is so much more than that! Really, this story is not just Jack (Jacqueline) climbing the bean stalk, it's a jumping off point to a bigger, greater story, offering up a new life, and new beginnings for Jack, and something completely different for the reader!
Kudos for the bonus story towards the end, where a corvid named Ro takes center stage! Ro is a wonderful character in this universe, and is a fantastic addition to Jack's story... Jack recognized Ro as a crow, albeit a very BIG crow, but a crow nonetheless, rather early in her (Jack's) story, but that's before Ro starts changing into something else! So now I really want/need to know... Just what the heck IS Ro?!?? I'd be happy if Ro's just a Damn Big, very colorful crow, but I'm laying odds that he's actually a creature straight out of mythology!

Wonderful
Such a wonderful tale. I enjoyed the blending of this story with some fairytales. Dark at times, yet she kept her goal of kindness.
The author also narrated and did an excellent job. Her voice was clear, expressive and the brief moments of singing were lovely.

Even Better then the First Book
We love the flipped fairy tales and although we really enjoyed the first book this one was even better. Having the author read this was pretty amazing - she was a great narrator and it just shows that some authors really should be the readers of their stories. This was pretty different from the original tale of Jack and the Bean Stalk but it does seem to be the trend in most media to portray the females as the strong heroine character - not complaining. If you like the flipped or redone fairy tale type stories then you should give this one a try.

I love when a fairytale is "flipped" and it is...
Better than the original. The author read this audiobook and showed her talent not only as a writer but a reader who brought her characters to life. I loved that it was her kindness that lead her even though she came from a dark beginning it did not sour her world view. I reccomend for anyone who likes seeing the stories they grew up with grow too.

Once again, amazing!
I read the first of Starla’s flipped fairytales and loved it! This book seemed a little different, with what I consider to be a slightly bigger deviation from the original fairytale, but did not fail to disappoint! I found the first chapter or two a bit of a struggle to get through, but after that I was hooked and couldn’t put it down. I really appreciated the message of kindness and compassion towards others, I think it’s a good message to keep in mind but one that can get lost or forgotten in modern day, fast-paced life. I also liked the subtle references to the first book included in this one (while reading the first is by no means necessary to enjoy this story, I recommend it anyway just because it was a great book)
The narration of the audiobook is decent. The sound quality is good with no issues or excessive pauses, however the narrator I’d say is average. Not bad by any means, but I’ve heard better.
Overall I highly recommend these flipped fairytales and can’t wait for more in the series!

Delightful
This was a delightful re-telling of fairy tales. Innocent in every way, beautiful for children and adults. The heart of this book is inspiring, inspiring us to kindness and hope. I was given this book at my request in exchange for an honest review. I am grateful, it was very uplifting. Sharla Huchton is a gifted writer and narrator. Her skill in communicating the personalities of male and female characters was impressive. As a children's book, I give it four stars; for the performance, five stars. I wish I could have given it ten stars for the performance.

Wonderful series!
Starla Huchton is an amazing writer! I have read both books in this series and loved them both. This story offers a wonderful heroine, named Jacqueline but goes by Jack, who discovers herself along her journey. She is a smart and uplifting character. I finished the book in one day, as it was fast moving and easy to follow. I really enjoyed this series and cannot wait for the next!
