I read this novel on the back of the Harry Potter books. Why do I mention this? Because my mind was away in another world of bickering teenage angst and dark lord this that and the others. King by Right is nothing of the sort. Magic is low key, more of a personal trait, and the hero is born to be king, kind of.
What we actually have is a future past: that is we have seen the world destroyed and then re-evolved into a medieval style world. I must admit that found the prologue a bit needless a More...

The preface to this book really caught my attention, I was immediately transported into another world- a world that I had not expected at all after seeing the cover. For this is a world in which ordinary people have special powers and being born a king doesn't necessary mean that you know how to do the job. After the exciting and intriguing preface the main book started off slowly. I was craving for some descriptions of the characters that I could get my teeth into and some references as to More...

Most stories about knights and castles take place in the distant past. This one is set in the distant future.

Humanity is nearly wiped out by a large asteroid that strikes the moon, and breaks it into many pieces, sending the pieces toward Earth. If the initial earthquakes and tidal waves don’t kill people by the millions, the later nuclear winter does.

Thousands of years later, eastern North America (where this is set) has reverted to a medieval level. Harris is the son of More...

I enjoyed this book. It was, to be honest, not my usual taste. I tend toward more realism, or the ultimate in realism: memoir. In fact, I only read King by Right of Blood and Might due to a book exchange. That said, it was really a great story, and now that I've read it, I might ease up a bit on my genre-specific bias.

OK, so the story is timely: interested in 2012? Read it. In the beginning an asteroid hits the moon, which sets of a series of climactic events that end up wiping More...

King by Right of Blood and Might Resurrects The Best In People

When the moon was hit by an asteroid, the devastation that followed was catastrophic, not only to the very formation of the Earth but to its population. Billions were killed. Continents were reformed. Governments toppled. Nuclear waste spilled onto the land. Life eventually began again, but its society receded to a much earlier time.

King by Right of Blood and Might is at once a futuristic tale and a leap backw More...

A major catastrophe has occurred on Earth and only about 20% of the population survives the initial event. The aftereffects are devastating and climactic events follow, further decimating the surviving population. It isn't until over a million years pass by that the Earth has heals itself and humankind is able to live and survive. That's where this story begins. The prologue covers all of this.

Harris Penn is the son of the inept and shut-in King Aidyn of Pennland. Harris is sent to C More...

I was given this book by the author, who has published it independently, and more power to her!

I might start off by explaining my rating system:

No (0) stars - It's utter crap, don't buy it, what a waste of paper.
One (1) star - It's utter crap, with one or two redeeming qualities.
Two (2) stars - It's crap, but has a fair amount of potential.
Three (3) stars - It's good, though not my preferred reading fare, you should still read it.
Four (4 More...

King by Right of Blood and Might is an epic tale of a young man who was born a prince, yet was forced by circumstance to fight for his Kingdom rather than easily inherit it. This intricately-woven tale takes the prince from the palace that has kept him prisoner for most of his life out into the world that he has been aching to experience. What he finds is a shock. The Kingdom of Penn is not much of a kingdom at all, in fact, it's been taken over by bandits ruled by the evil Kain who has also More...

This is Ms. Walls first published manuscript. It tells the story Harris O’Aidyn from his childhood throughout his adulthood as he learns how to be a king and a ruler of his kingdom which was Pennland. Harris was the prince of Pennland who became the king after his father was murdered by his mother. King Aidyn sent his son, Prince Harris, to live with King Carroll who was the King of Carolinas so that Prince Harris would learn how to become a king while also getting to know his betroth, Pri More...

An interesting story about a young prince who needs to learn how to become a king and pull his kingdom together. I've met Anna online and feel that she has great potential as an author--she's one to watch. This isn't my usual genre choice, but she had me rooting for the hero and enjoying the story, twists and obstacles that stood in his way.
