"Dark, edgy, and captivating." --Morgan Rhodes, New York Times bestselling author of the Falling Kingdoms series

How do you help your sister remember when all you want to do is forget?

Violet wants nothing more than to forget how she put her sister in the hospital. When she discovers that her sister’s amnesia is caused by otherworldly creatures stealing memories, Violet is propelled into Dementia, an alternate world of lost moments and forgotten dreams.

It is there that Violet meets the Rememberists, a rag-tag crew of memory freedom fighters led by Declan and Cheshire, brothers who try to recruit Violet into their cause. Yet their shadowy demeanors make Violet question their motivations, even when she discovers that they can help her sister. But if Violet doesn’t start trusting someone soon, she’ll never be able to save her sister’s memories—or herself.

THE PRINCESS ELECTRIC is the first book in The Rememberist Saga, a young adult urban fantasy series set in an alternate world of lost memories, where the most precious commodity is the ability to remember, and the pain of forgetting is a tortured silence that lasts forever.

Review

"Dark, edgy, and captivating, The Princess Electric swept me down the rabbit hole with its gripping tale of memory and madness." —Morgan Rhodes, New York Times bestselling author of the Falling Kingdoms series

"A kaleidoscopic neo-noir adventure packed with imaginative world building and gorgeous imagery, The Princess Electric is Alice in Wonderland meets The Matrix and Dark City, with dashes of The Fifth Element and Jupiter Ascending for good measure. A thrilling ode to the power of memory and the tragedy of forgetting, this book is a glittering fever dream that I won't soon forget."—Claire Legrand, New York Times bestselling author of Furyborn

"Mixing epic action and out of this world fantasy, The Princess Electric is a heartfelt tale of sisterly love that defies being put down. This madly creative meditation on memory and the value of moments we hold dear is pulse pounding right to the last page."—Frank Beddor, New York Times bestselling author of The Looking Glass Wars series

"Intriguing premise with a flair for unique and vivid imagery...with a strong hero." —Kirkus Reviews

"The Princess Electric takes its reader on an action-packed journey into the fantasy realm of Dementia, in a way which is both entertaining and thought-provoking." —IndieReader (IR Approved Starred Review)

A fascinating odyssey

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 11, 2022

Derek Silver is an adept storyteller. Packed with supernatural elements, chaos, and interweaving this with a fierce protagonist with spirit, guts, and determination, "The Princess Electric" is an immersive text. From the onset, it oozes impressive descriptions and world-building which form a backdrop to a compelling story.
The classic concepts of good versus evil and faith versus unbelief play out intricately here. I liked the familial bond between Violet and Karin and reading about the extent that which Violet was willing to go to save her sick sister, is appreciable. The plausibility of the story too will appeal to a large audience. This book not only makes for pure escapist entertainment but also mirrors some of the real-life situations in modern society.

Exciting and unique, The Electric Princess is a book you won't want to put down!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 15, 2022

"Tomorrow can bloom brighter than today if you want it to, just like a dream."

I didn't realize just how trippy this book was until I tried explaining it to my husband. It's like a hyped twist between Alice in Wonderland and steampunk dreaming. It also reminded me of a more adult version of Perceiver by E.C. Fuller, which I did like (despite its flaws). I was thankful for the repeated use of the kaleidoscope illustration in this book because that is exactly how I imagined the world of Dementia. I also pictured the Mirror Dimension from Dr. Strange, just more glittery--which was very fun by the way! The Princess Electric is one heck of a Dystopian Fantasy, complete with revolutions, lots of weapons, and a mind-boggling world.

Violet is a classic main character in a dystopian novel. Fueled by her own hurts and motivations, she often comes off as selfish and cold, but in the end, she really just wants to right her wrongs and ease her conscience. Declan and Cheshire are one heck of a pair of brothers, one with powers of light and one with powers of shadow. Both are vying for Violet's attention and though they have the same goal, they have very different methods. I never had a strong feeling of preference for either of the brothers; I distrusted them equally, so I can't say I was ecstatic over Violet's eventual choice and resolution. It's pretty odd for me (personally) to not choose a side in the love triangle competition, but I never really felt like either of the brothers was worth Violet's attention, though if I had to choose sides, I would've chosen Declan. In a lot of ways, I sort of feel like the brothers were locked in a petty, alpha-male battle between themselves rather than actually caring about Violet's well-being so it made it that much more difficult to view them as potential love interests. It felt like "getting to Violet" meant that they won some unspoken game.

The story was epic and exciting. I really enjoyed the world of Dementia and the throwbacks and peeks into history that it provided. I liked the neurology connections and illustrations. And of course, the rebel group attempting to overthrow the queen was a blast to be part of! Overall, I enjoyed reading The Princess Electric and I'm here for the rest of the series!

Triggers: The cursing content is very high and while there is no true romance plot (only one kiss) within the pages, there are several sexual references and innuendos/jokes that may make some readers uncomfortable. The gore is also very descriptive during battle sequences and there are some stories that the Rememberists tell/relive that are pretty gory. A large amount of the plot revolves around dr*g distribution and consumption as well. If it were a TV series (which I would binge so fast), it would be rated TV-MA.

I received this book from the author/publisher for the purpose of this review. All comments and opinions are entirely my own.

A memorable story set in a world of glitter and glass as fragile and lovely as fading memories.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 18, 2021

Disclaimer: I received this ARC read from the author in exchange for a fair review.

Welcome to a world beyond the one we know, where memories are a most precious commodity. At times reminiscent of Asimov, at times reminiscent of the Matrix though instead of leather and grime there is glitter and glass The Princess Electric, author Derek Silver’s debut YA urban fantasy novel, is fresh, touching, and visually brilliant.

After a traumatic incident, Violet finds herself amongst a world different from her own and in the company of a group of vigilantes called the Rememberists. On a quest to save her sister’s fading memories, Violet navigates the vibrant world of Dementia, but she remains uncertain who she can trust amongst these delightfully gray characters. What unfolds is a journey into memory loss, mental health, trauma, and drug addiction.

I appreciated the themes of this book and the way Silver interweaved them with strong visual imagery. This land of glass and glitter is as fragile and lovely as fading memories. It’s poetic. It moved me on more than one occasion, to tears towards the end. The Princess Electric has its lovely moments where I felt so immersed in the story and could see so clearly what was happening.

I gave the story four stars instead of five because I felt the pacing lagged at certain points. At these points, there was a lot of telling in the form of explaining through dialogue. Having said that, there were many powerful moments where this was not the case. Where the story vibrated off the page. If I could, I would have given this story 4.5 stars, but since that’s not an option, I gave it 4 because the telling was enough it pulled me out of the story occasionally. This is, of course, my opinion and perhaps a matter of preference.

Overall, I recommend The Princess Electric. The imagery is brilliant and totally enjoyable. The subject is fascinating and moving. Silver’s writing weaves in fantastical imagery with touching subject matter and characters who are relatable and memorable. I look forward to this author’s next project.

My review

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 19, 2021

I got this book from the author for my review. I liked the plot of the story and the characters. The writing was well written and I did enjoy it. But what throw me off was the world it’s self. I didn’t like that the world was dementia and that the author focused the world around a this illness. Although the did do a good job of the world building I couldn’t get passed that one part. Other wise the book was good and was fun to read.

Captivating & Unique World

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 27, 2021

The unique world the author has created for this series is fascinating, it is filled with action, suspense, magic and a touch of romance. The detailed writing allows the reader to easily visualize the story taking place. The characters are relatable and I became invested in each of them early on - I do hope we get to learn more about the side characters in future books. This is the type of book that you want to take your time reading because there is alot to take in. I look forward to seeing where the author takes the story next.
