mistress of all evil a tale of the dark fairy

I felt that not much happened and it was mostly talking. I really enjoyed this book and I cannot wait to read the other ones in this series!

The book made me understand most characters better, and I just love how she linked all the Disney stories I grew up loving. Contrary to Poor Unfortunate Soul: A Tale of the Sea Witch, I think the author did a great job at balancing other storylines and Maleficent's backstory. I definitely did not see that coming! I think it was a great idea and it totally makes sense with the story. The plot twist at the end was probably my favorite part of the book. Despite being quite a short book, I think Serena Valentino portrayed each character fabulously. I love how we not only dug deeper into Maleficent's past, but we also got to see other characters from the Sleeping Beauty world as well as characters from previous novels in the series. This story did a wonderful job of describing Maleficent and explaining how she became the villain we all know (and love).

I know Maleficent is meant to be a villain, but my heart cannot help but ache for her, especially after what she has been through. Mistress of All Evil was probably my favorite in the series so far! Sleeping Beauty has never been one of my Disney favorites, but I absolutely loved the Maleficent movie with Angelina Jolie, so I have to admit that I was curious about this book. too bad they are all packed up because I'm moving next week.

Very evil.Īnd now I want to stop reading books today and watch disney movies. Mistress of All Evil will definitely give you more of a background into Maleficent (sort of like how her own movie gave a different view on Sleeping Beauty and background into how she grew up) and it takes you throughout her journey to becoming evil. This is kind of like my disappointment in Ursula's book because Ariel wasn't the main focus in that book - but some other lame mermaid. I mean it is her book and everything so I just kind of expected more of her point of view than anything else. The only complaint I have is that I wanted more of Maleficent. There are a ton of different POV's in this book - which can somewhat get a bit confusing while listening to the audio - but it's really enjoyable at the same time. I absolutely adore these books and they definitely get me into a Disney mood. Now I've never made it past book 4 so I'm really intrigued what the next one will give me.

Beyond addicting and I'm always hooked for another Disney adventure. There's just something about retellings that grabs me into the story. I'm trying to make it so it's one book a day or so but dang it's hard. So I'm not going to lie, I'm devouring this series so freaking easily. Their 'relationship' reminded me of Maleficent - the movie. It was also really interesting to see the three fairies not being all goodie goodie too. Going into Maleficent and reading her story - well, there's no reason to doubt why she became the way she did.
