Welcome to my favorite Feature:
“Waiting on” Wednesday is hosted weekly by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
Stolen Songbird by Danielle L. Jensen
Series: Â The Malediction Trilogy #1
Expected publication:Â April 1st 2014 by Strange Chemistry
Love the cover! So magical!Â
For those who have loved Seraphina and Graceling comes another truly fabulous fantasy…
For five centuries, a witch’s curse has bound the trolls to their city beneath the ruins of Forsaken Mountain. Time enough for their dark and nefarious magic to fade from human memory and into myth. But a prophesy has been spoken of a union with the power to set the trolls free, and when Cécile de Troyes is kidnapped and taken beneath the mountain, she learns there is far more to the myth of the trolls than she could have imagined.
Cécile has only one thing on her mind after she is brought to Trollus: escape. Only the trolls are clever, fast, and inhumanly strong. She will have to bide her time, wait for the perfect opportunity.
But something unexpected happens while she’s waiting – she begins to fall for the enigmatic troll prince to whom she has been bonded and married. She begins to make friends. And she begins to see that she may be the only hope for the half-bloods – part troll, part human creatures who are slaves to the full-blooded trolls. There is a rebellion brewing. And her prince, Tristan, the future king, is its secret leader.
As Cécile becomes involved in the intricate political games of Trollus, she becomes more than a farmer’s daughter. She becomes a princess, the hope of a people, and a witch with magic powerful enough to change Trollus forever.
Right now, I’m in a reading phase where I crave Fantasy stories. It always amazes me how creative some authors are and this is especially amazing in Fantasy stories. Also, Strange Chemistry showed in the past that they have some truly unique stories!
Super excited for this one!

Oh my God! That cover is so beautiful! I am buying it just for the cover. No not really but the cover says I cannot leave it be. The story sounds amazing! But the cover really needs to be framed, lol. Thank you for featuring this one!!
