Blue Moon Rising, Part 2 of 3

Forest Kingdom #1, 2/3

by Simon R. Green

The Darkwood and its demons are encroaching on the Forest Castle, creating a path of destruction and leaving behind a plague. Within the castle, the royal heir, Prince Harald, creates intrigue in a plot to overthrow King John - a plot that would put Harald on the throne and change the Forest Kingdom forever. His brother Rupert risks losing his home, Princess Julia and his life, as he braves the minions of the Demon Prince in order to find the exiled High Warlock. The only hope of salvation is the Warlock's magic, unless Julia and the Royal Seneschal can find the missing Sword of Compulsion known in legend as The Curtana.

About the author

Simon Richard Green is a British science fiction and fantasy-author. He holds a degree in Modern English and American Literature from the University of Leicester. His first publication was in 1979.

His Deathstalker series is partly a parody of the usual space-opera of the 1950s, told with sovereign disregard of the rules of probability, while being at the same time extremely bloodthirsty.

Reviews

[Derrick]

I wish I would have read this in order, but alas I read this after having read Part 3. The characters are still great after a long time having listened to part 1 and 3. It's a good story and the characters and banter is what makes it. Can't wait to start the next books in the series.
