Molly Storm - Annie Louise Twitchell (Golden Braids Release Day Review!)


Wow.  I love this story.  Talk about a fractured fairy tale…


There is a witch living on a lonely isle.  Driven by fear of the Pirate King to a terrible deed, her heart is stained with darkness.  Will it devour her?

This is a retelling of Rapunzel.  Since it’s a short story, there isn’t a lot I can say without giving too much away.  But it’s a powerful story in a small package.  There are only four characters, but each of them is wonderful.  Matteo is my favorite; he was such a cute kid!  Molly, the POV character, has a strong and compelling voice.  Ulva is so sweet and unexpected.  And Stearns is definitely the kind of villain I love to hate.  Highly recommended!

FYI, sea lettuce is a kind of seaweed.  Who knew?
