About this listen

Is it possible for Maren to save her kingdom? And marry her true love?

Starving villagers crowd the poverty-stricken kingdom of Baron. The death toll climbs each day. The fate of the village hinges on the decision of their future Queen Maren. Although admired for her generosity and grace, she holds the keys to their troubled state. If she marries well, things will turn around. But, will she be able to marry Prince Daniel Trew, her childhood love? Or, will she have to settle for the mysterious Prince John?

With an unknown past, Maren must prove her royalty to Queen Trew if she is to win Daniel’s hand in marriage. She must also get a true love’s kiss in order to break a spell before it becomes permanent, which would ruin all hope for her kingdom’s survival.

With ravenous wolves, elite competition, a ghastly curse, a disfigured friend, and a superlative, nefarious witch at her tail, will Maren get her happily ever after?

X-Spelled is the untold story behind Hans Christian Andersen's 1835 fairy tale, The Princess and the Pea. It explains why the princess is in the midst of “a terrible storm”, how she got “black and blue” from the pea, why it’s “a true story”, and more.

If I could give half or no stars I would 😬 Sorry but the voice of the author was not soothing, it physically made me cringe. Especially when she was singing in the witches voice. I love a re-telling story but the tone of the voice made it super boring and I couldn’t get into it. I only finished it for my Alphabet Challenge…

Did not enjoy the narrator - sorry
