Its absolutely fascinating to reread Six Crimson Cranes after having consumed Her Radiant Curse. Seeing Channari go through all of that, and come out the other side even more jaded and angry when everything she wanted was a breath away. I truly wonder what made her make the decisions she did, regarding Shiori. A part of me wants to assume that she is doing this out of love and care for what Shiori could become. especially since through her eyes to have magic is not a blessing, and to have a dragons pearl even less of a boon. But she also fulfills the role of wicked stepmother in this story, so maybe she forgot her promise to Vanna already. All that being said, its been awhile since I read Six Crimson Cranes and although the Six Swans is one of my fav fairy tales, the first go round I wasn't particularly entranced by this retelling. So I remember little.

Manuscript vs Myth: Six Crimson Cranes

We take a look at Elizabeth Lim's enchanting novel which reimagines the Six Swans fairy tale in an Asian-inspired fantasy world.

In her fantasy novel, ‘Six Crimson Cranes,’ Elizabeth Lim tells an enchanting tale of love, magic, family and sacrifice as we follow the unlucky princess, Shiori, as she attempts to save her brothers from a terrible curse.

Once a pampered princess, everything changed for Shiori when her wicked stepmother transforms her six brothers into white cranes. Cursed with silence, Shiori is the only one who can find a way to save them. If this story sounds familiar, it’s because it should. Lim’s novel is inspired by the fairy tale of ‘The Six Swans,’ reimagined to take place in Kiata, an East-Asian inspired fantasy world.

The original story of ‘The Six Swans’ is a German fairy tale that was included in the collections of the brothers Grimm in 1812. The story tells of a king who managed to get lost while hunting and was offered aid from an old witch, on the condition that he marry her only daughter. While the king was reluctant, he agreed to the deal. The king had been married before, however, and already had six sons and one daughter from his previous wife. Fearing that his new wife would hurt them, he sent them away and would visit them in secret.
