Please note: This is NOT a Sleeping Beauty Retelling, but the adventures of her children. Thank you.

 I didn't realise this was by the same author as Of Beast and Beauty right off. I mean, when I originally pre-ordered it I probably did, but I've had time to forget since then. First I thought what I didn't like so much about it was sort of the same that I'd liked about Of Beast and Beauty, that the romance wasn't centre stage. But on closer thought, it was more likely that it was because these guys were both idiots. I mean really! 
 I liked that we got to see both points of view between the two and though it was annoying at first, it was informative seeing the queen's side too. I wasn't too impressed that they renamed Sleeping Beauty and gave her name to her daughter, but well, ok. I think my favourite was Niklaas, though he was somewhat idiotic too. Really, they should have just talked! But I can't really rant, I'm not very good at saying things either. 
 I sort of crammed the ending in before bed, but ended up going back over it all and changing my rating for the better. Why? Because there are some very good paragraphs in the last few pages. Maybe they just strike me because of things I've been thinking of at the moment, but I liked them. Also, I'm in a romance mood right now and if I hadn't been then I'd have been giving it 4 voodoos anyway. 
 I also loved the descriptions of the beards. Not something I've ever read in a book ever, especially when in reference to the studly main man. It was just perfect. It felt like there was a little snow white mixed in with this story, the evil step-mother and so forth, as well as Red Riding Hood and Rapunzel. I wonder if they'll get their own stories too? 
 And once again, my usual complaint; more at the end! It's all well and good getting to the happily ever after, but what next? We could have at least gotten up to his sister's arrival and seen her take on things. Also, a little more of Jor would have been nice. Was he anything like Aurora?
