Reviews

Reviewed by Pikasho Deka for Readers’ Favorite:

A coming-of-age story about two sibling heirs to a Swan kingdom, who choose two very different paths to react to life’s challenges. Santer has woven a fascinating tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption. Animal lovers will find the book particularly heartwarming, as Santer captures animal behavior and social interactions flawlessly on the page. Highly recommended.

Reviewed by Bailey Cavender for Reedsy:

LOVED IT! A delightful novel in which the characters come alive, allowing the reader to become invested in them and their struggles. Readers will laugh, cry, and find themselves thoroughly enjoying spending time with Serena and the other creatures of the kingdom. The novel calls to mind ‘ Bambi’ and ‘The Lion King’, but has a unique flavor all its own. ‘Swan Song’ will become a classic animal story.

Reviewed by David P Busuttil MDH for Goodreads:

An enchanting tale replete with life lessons. Inheritance disputes and power struggles bring out the best and the worst of human nature, which is what makes this delightful novel so original and relatable. This novel should appeal to all readers, young and old, irrespective of whether they like talking animals or not. All in all, an enjoyable read. I recommend.
