Rockstar Book Tours: “Prince of Song & Sea” Retells Disney’s Classic “The Little Mermaid” From Prince Eric’s POV

I am thrilled to be hosting a spot on the PRINCE OF SONG & SEA Blog Tour hosted by Rockstar Book Tours. Prince of Song & Sea kicks off a new series of Disney re-tellings that focuses on the stories of the princes in classic stories. Often times the Princes have been random love interests with little depth or development whose love is the end goal of our generally more interesting heroines. The Princes series hopes to change that.

Prince Eric is a great first choice, in my opinion, because he’s a very dynamic, likable prince. He’s always been one of my favorites. Linsey Miller gives real depth to the prince’s story making him more than just a pretty, happy young man who falls for a beautiful girl. He becomes a young man on the eve of his coronation whose dealing with threats to a kingdom he’s forced to take charge of after losing his parents far too young. He’s a young man determined to prove himself and fend off threats to his home.

He’s also a young man with his own curse to break, a curse placed on him before he was even born by a sea witch. If he ever kisses anyone besides his true love he will die.

Prince of Song & Sea is a swashbuckling tale that shows how Prince Eric’s path comes to cross with Ariel and the story that will ultimately lead them to true love. Filled with interesting new characters and conflicts, Prince of Song & Sea is a great first entry into the Princes series. Where I wasn’t always a big fan of previous retellings, I’m actually really into this series and can’t wait to see what comes next.

Before Prince Eric’s mother, the Queen of Vellona, went missing two years ago, she reminded him about the details of the deadly curse that has plagued his entire life. The curse? If he were to kiss someone other than his true love, he would die. With a neighboring kingdom looking for any excuse to invade their shores, and rumors of ghost pirates lurking the seas, Eric is desperate for any information that may help him break his enchantment and bring stability to Vellona. The answers he has been searching for come to him in the form of a letter left from his mother that reveals Eric must find his true love, the one with a voice pure of heart,or kill the sea witch responsible for cursing him in the first place.

Now Eric is on a quest to find the Isle of Serein, the witch’s legendary home. But after he is rescued by a mysterious young woman with a mesmerizing singing voice, Eric’s heart becomes torn. Does he enter a battle he is almost certain he cannot win or chase a love that might not even exist? And when a shipwrecked young woman with flaming red hair and a smile that could calm the seven seas enters his life, Eric may discover that true love isn’t something that can be decided by magic.
