Description
Hate. Her magic was infused with it. And in that hate was a deep, penetrating sorrow…
The tale of the sea king's daughter Ariel is a beloved one of losing―and then finding―one's own voice.
The story has been told many times and in many ways. But always the mergirl wants more than her world can offer, and her father demands that she live within the confines of his domain. Her rebelliousness costs the little mermaid her voice and nearly her soul. But the power of good prevails, and Ariel emerges proud and unchanged.
And yet this is only half the story. So what of Ariel's nemesis, Ursula, the sea witch? What led to her becoming so twisted, scorned, and filled with hatred? Many tales have tried to explain her motives. Here is one account of what might have shaped the sea witch into a detestable and poor unfortunate soul.

Honestly, this was a big disappointment... I was expecting so much of Ursula, seeing there were 21 chapters, about 130 pages of all Ursula, one of my favorite villains, and turns out more than half the book was about the Odd Sisters, Circe, Tulip, and Nanny... And it enrages me more knowing there is a future book just about the Sisters, so why make more than half the book about them? I mean, I appreciate the context and everything but there were more than 7 chapters just about anything else but Ursula, maybe 3 or 4 chapters of Ursula only and the rest were a blend where Ursula's was just a side character mentioned once or twice in the chapter. Wouldn't recommend as an Ursula's book per se, but like a Tulip's book with a hint of Ursula's back story. I think what really throws me off is the way they sell it, because it's not all Ursula's story.
