Different from the other two, Jun 28 2010
By Angelette K. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Princess And The Snowbird (Hardcover)
"The Princess and the Snowbird" addresses the final solution to the problem of the people's aversion to animal magic from the first two books in the trilogy. Here, we are introduced to Liva, daughter of the hound and the bear, who have dedicated their lives to helping those with animal magic. In their hopes to truly make a difference, the two give up their magic and give it all to Liva, who, with their combined magic, is able to shift to any animal she desires.
The story sets forward, showing the reader how the sheltered Liva, who had only lived in the forest, comes to understand human nature and its cruelty to those who are different, and also discover hope - that not all men are evil.
Much shorter than the other two books, and slightly different, with two types of magic identified, it takes a slight shift in perspective. Harrison writes in her bookflap, "The trick to making a reader believe that two characters will fall in love with each other is to make the reader fall in love with both characters". While she dispenses good advice, I think the books works because of her voice, rather than my love for her characters.
Harrison's voice is quite mesmerizing - dragging you into the story, even if the premise is quite outlandish.
Definitely would recommending reading the first two books to understand what is going on in this story and to get the full conclusion.

I enjoyed reading The Princess and the Snowbird. The book was alittle short for my liking but the story was a good one. I will look forward to buying more books from Harrison.

This book has a very nice story line for young and old. It takes you to a place of magic. The story is so well written you would think this really happened.
