The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom (The League of Princes, #1)
by Christopher Healy (Goodreads Author) |
|
| This book was a fun re-telling of the classic fairy tale myths, told through the point-of-view of the "Prince Charmings" who are otherwise very wooden, but here Liam, Duncan, Gustav, and Frederich are all dynamic: they have their strengths, they have ...more | |

| I met the author--he seemed nice--and got this book signed for my son, who really enjoyed it, so I decided to give it a read. It's pretty good. Moves quickly, has some funny parts and some touching parts, maybe a bit random but that's all right. The ...more | |
