What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Princess Academy: Palace of Stone by Shannon Hale, read by Mandi Lee

A New York Times Bestseller

In this second book in New York Times bestselling, Newbery Honor-winning author Shannon Hale's Princess Academy series, Miri embarks on a brand new life in the city.

Now that a princess has been chosen, Miri is thrilled at the chance to experience city life in the capital. She and her academy friends have traveled to Asland to help Britta prepare for her wedding. There, Miri also has the opportunity to study at the prestigious Queen’s Castle.

But not everything is as perfect as Miri hoped. As she befriends smart and world-wise students, Miri learns that they have alarming plans for a revolution. Torn between loyalty to her old friends and the allure of her new friends, between an old love and a new crush, and between the exciting city and her humble mountain home, Miri must decide where she stands.

Critics Review

Palace of Stone . . . proves once again that with quick wit and brave words, one person really can change the world.
SLJ on Palace of Stone
Powerful and deeply engaging. . . . Readers who have been waiting since 2005 will find their patience well rewarded.
Kirkus Reviews on Palace of Stone
Hale’s skill as a storyteller will charm her audience…nobody else has quite the same knack for seamlessly segueing between the folksy, intimate charm of an extended fairy tale and the larger canvas and more epic scope of high fantasy.
The Horn Book on Palace of Stone
Hale is a master of fantasy. . . . A gorgeously-written sequel.

Shannon Hale's books reignite my love of reading--that joy of having the time of my life with a great story.
