Swan Lake Quest For The Kingdoms GN – Harper Alley introduces two unlikely friends who became heroes. Odette is a princess who lives with a curse that magically transforms her into a swan when the sun rises. Dillie is a princess who dreams of having an adventure instead of sitting on a throne. They are supposed to be enemies. Their kingdoms have been feuding since before they were born. But after they meet each other at the lake that separates their castles, it’s clear the two princesses were destined to be friends. But when they discover Odette’s curse is the reason for the tension between their families, Dillie and Odette decide to follow an ancient legend that could lead them to someone who can set things right. The girls are put to the ultimate test as they travel through enchanted lands, meet new allies and fight terrible foes! Fans of Amulet and The Okay Witch will enjoy this new series.
