Folklore. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. Lorelai Diederich, crown princess and fugitive at large, has one mission: kill the wicked queen who took both the Ravenspire throne and her father's life. To do that, Lorelai needs to use the one weapon she and Queen Irina have in common-magic. She'll have to be stronger, faster, and more powerful than Irina, the most dangerous sorceress Ravenspire has ever seen. In the neighboring kingdom of Eldr, when Prince Kol's father and older brother are killed by an invading army of magic wielding ogres, the second-born prince is suddenly given the responsibility of saving his kingdom. To do that, Kol needs magic of his own-and the only way to get it is to make a deal with the queen of Ravenspire, promise to become her personal huntsman-and bring her Lorelai's heart. But Lorelai is nothing like Kol expected-beautiful, fierce, and unstoppable-and despite dark magic, Lorelai is drawn in by the passionate and troubled king. Fighting to stay one step ahead of the dragon huntsman-who she likes far more than she should-Lorelai does everything in her power to ruin the wicked queen. But Irina isn't going down without a fight, and her final move may cost the princess the one thing she still has left to lose.… (mehr)

I wasn't crying at the end, I just had some dust that fell in my eye, lol. I really loved this, my first snow white retelling and reminded me of the show Once upon a time, the twist with the huntsman and dual hearts was definitely different but in a good way. ( )

The was an average retelling and change to a classic story. It didn't wow me even with the unique elements it possessed. That being said, I didn't hate it.

In the beginning I was just NOT feeling it. Once I got to the climax of the story, it got better. The beginning was too slow for me.

If you like fairy tale retelling this one might peak your interest and I deem it worthy of picking up.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a fast paced read and the start of the book suprised me alot. I did not expect the way this started. I love the presence of magic and dragons in a snow white retelling. I love the lead guy in this so much and the villain was terrible. Very fast pace read. ( )

I've always strongly disliked Snow White, but Shadow Queen I like a lot - it's so much better than Snow White!

Also I love C.J. Redwine’s books - they're awesome! I love The Traitor Prince - it might be my favorite of her books so far. I'm reading The Wish Granter now after this book.

I love Lorelai, she's so much more relatable and awesome and Irina is even more understandable even though she is detestable and disgusting with her evil wickedness.

And I love Kol and his little group of friends and Kol and Lorelai together complement each other.

I am gaining a new level of appreciation and interest in the fairy tales because of these great retellings.

If you haven't checked this book out or any of these by C.J. Red wine, you should.
