Many years ago, the magical kingdom of Avalon was left desolate and encased in ice when the evil Snow Queen waged war on the powerful country. Its former citizens are now refugees in a world mostly devoid of magic-which is why the crown prince and his protectors are stuck in...Arizona. Prince Alexei, the sole survivor of the Avalon royal family, is in hiding in a town so lame that magic doesn't even work there. Few know his secret identity, but his friend Tala is one of them. Tala doesn't mind-she has secrets of her own-namely, that she's a spell breaker, someone who negates magic. But hope for their abandoned homeland reignites when a famous creature of legend, and Avalon's most powerful weapon, the Firebird, appears for the first time in decades. Alex and Tala unite with a ragtag group of new friends to journey back to Avalon for a showdown that will change the world as they know it.… (más)

Couldn't get through the first 50 pages of illogical world building info dumb vomiting. Yoicks. ( )

* I got this book for review for my honest thoughts*
This book was such a welcome surprise. I loved both the set up of this book and also how this book was structured. I really was impressed and captured by the world building throughout the whole novel. I thought the main characters were super easy to become invested in and also really loved the "rag tag bunch of heroes". I also really enjoyed the various fairy tale characters that used to that filled this world . I really loved the pace of this novel and found this book to be both super heartfelt but also really funny read. I thought some moments the world building could of been clearer but I think because this world was so vast, it was understandable. I really am excited for more books in this series eventually! ( )

Sold first book in a series. Alternate history where there is magic (and magical lands) in our world. I squeed at some of the literary shout-outs. ( )

NetGalley Submitted Review:
I was excited to read this book as my first NetGalley selection, and it didn’t disappoint!
The world-building is well-executed, as is the character development. The narrative pace is snappy and keeps one engaged. In fact, I found that I couldn’t put it down! The crisp dialogue between characters brings them to life off the page and had me laughing out loud at times. I enjoyed the connections Chupeco made between fairytales of different cultural traditions and the respectful inclusion of characters of different backgrounds (i.e., gender identity, sexuality, nationality, etc.). Chupeco also didn’t shy away from engaging smartly with some of today’s most pressing social issues: poverty, immigration, corporate greed, racism, etc.
All in all, this was a very enjoyable read and I’m looking forward to book 2 of the series. ( )
