Princess Myrel is an adventurous, brave,
outgoing princess who wants to slay dragons, and much more. Princess
Addelina (Addie for short) is a shy, cowardly, frail princess who's
greatest fear is spiders, and who loves her sister more than anything
in the world. But when Myrel gets the Gray Death, a killing disease
that is going through the kingdom (for which there is no cure) Addie
is determined to find the cure before her sister dies. Will Addie
find the cure in time? Read the book to find out!
I recommend this book to people who like suspense,
books by Gail Carson Levine, and books that are in the first person.
I wouldn't change this book at all. It was great!!

This book is about two princesses, one is a coward,
the other is brave beyond belief. They both are having an almost perfect
life, until one day it all goes wrong. The brave princess Meryl catches
the gray death and doesn’t have much time to live. Princess Addie (the
coward) now has to go and find the cure so her sister will live, but
she's just not skipping along looking for herbs, in this adventure she
is going to have to face Gryphons, Dragons, Ogres, and the face of
death.
I like this book because it has
adventure, action, excitement, magic, and there is never a dull moment.
I think everyone would like this book. Even though the main characters
are princesses, they don’t act prissy, or spoiled at all, so I
think boys would even like this book.

A kingdom beset by monsters......A disease that
weakens and destroys....A epic poem and a hero of long ago......A
story of danger and desperation..........And of the will of the weak
to fight beside the strong. This enchanting fairy tale tells the story
of Addie, a princess who has everything until her sister Meryl catches
the Gray Death. It it then that Addie decides that she, even though
she is afraid of the monsters that destroy Bamarre, will go out into
the world and find a cure for the Gray Death. Will she live out where
there is so many life threating things that could be right beside you
and you would not know it?
I recommend this book to people who really enjoy
fantasy.
