The Shadow Queen review:
A retelling of Snow White, too familiar or different enough?
Plenty of different worlds come into play– dragons, fae, magic beings
The Eldr and the Draconi are the most interesting world
Kol the bad boy turned into responsible future king
Orges now have magic which makes them invincible against the dragons
Kol is smart enough to make a deal, but not smart enough to see through Irina’s ploy
Irina’s magic is killing the land, but it is also costing her because she does not rightfully belong to Ravenspire
Lorelai has the inherent ability to win the people over and ultimately gets the job done
Viktor and Irina have an interesting evil-support system relationship
