Review
Thaw: Winter
Queen is the second book in the Thaw Series by E Kaiser Writes. It continues
Ilise and Girta’s story and shows many of the consequences of the bad decisions
and neglect that occurred in Winter’s
Child. The story focuses on “The Snow Queen” fairytale and has a plotline
very similar to that of Frozen, once
again.
I was much more impressed with Winter Queen than I had been with Winter’s Child. Although Winter Queen is even more similar to Frozen than the first, it showed
insights into the characters that a short movie was not able to portray. It
also followed “The Snow Queen” fairytale more closely, including a House of
Roses and highlighting on the struggles Hess undertook as well as Ilise, Girta,
and Kai.
I was impressed with the wisdom of the Winter
Angel and the struggles Ilise undertook to undo the damage Ilise had done to
herself and her country. It was certainly a struggle for Ilise, especially
since well-meaning Girta did not know how to listen to Ilise’s instructions.
Both girls faced the consequences of their decisions, but they succeeded and
gave the reader a good role model to follow.
Another character I liked was Hess. Yes, he was
the villain prince, but he was so dashing and helpful and loving at the
beginning. Even though he made mistakes at the end, it almost seemed as though
it was not his fault and that, some day, Hess might change back to the kind
young man he was in the beginning.
Overall, Winter
Queen was a lovely book I would recommend to fans of Frozen. I look forward to reading the third book in the series.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange
for an honest review.
