Book Review: The Hero's Guide To Storming the Castle
Summary: Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You remember them, don't you? They're the Princes Charming, who finally got some credit after they stepped out of the shadows of their princesses--Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow White, and Briar Rose--to defeat an evil witch bent on destroying all their kingdoms.
But alas, such fame and recognition only last so long. And when the princes discover that an object of great power might fall into any number of wrong hands, they are going to have to once again band together to stop it from happening--even if no one will ever know it was they who did it.
Thoughts: This is one of the funniest series's I've ever read, hands down probably number one on the list. Brilliant characters are the real catch here. I love them all. Even the villains are wonderful. Some are typical-plain-ol'-villains. And some are unique and layered. And, of course, there are the bumbling heroes that are the real stars of this book. I love this cast and their development had me spinning on my head by the end wondering where all this was going.
The plot was great! So many twists and unbelievable topsy-turvy turns it was ridiculous and wonderful!
And the writing is always great. I can't emphasize enough how hilarious this book was and it's all due to the brilliant wording that never ruins the moment but carries everything through smoothly. From the humor to the action to even the more tender moments, everything moves with a great flow.
Content: A little bit of rude humor. Some violence and non-bloody deaths. Otherwise, a clean and fun read for all ages!
