Book 2 in the series, after Traitor's Game, didn't disappoint. Kestra is tasked with killing Lord Endrick, but that doesn't go so well and she isn't the same after. Simon thinks he can save her without magic (because magic makes people evil like Lord Endrick). Coracks and Halderians are after her an...

Well, it's not really a surprise that my sons have great taste in literature. My oldest has been telling me to read The False Prince for 7 years! My youngest just finished reading Jennifer Nielsen's The Mark of the Thief series and pretty much devoured it. I see now what their enthusiasm is all a...

This was amazing. The story was exciting and so entertaining. I loved Sage and how witty he was. This book had danger, friendship, humour, and so much more.

This book happend to keep me up until the wee hours, laser focused and transfixed. I'm not sure if it was the writing, the 3 cups of Jasmine black tea or my insomnia but I found it difficult to put down and then even more difficult to eject from my brain in order to let the sleep in. There were anno...

I'll update this post with my final review once I've finished/quit the book. But before then I just have to say I wish Nielsen were more patient with her story and with her readers. She explains too much too early and it's getting worse with every book. Ugh, I got bored in the middle and just skim...

I cannot stop comparing this series to The Queen's Thief, which is really not fair to these books since the Queen's Thief series is better than most everything out there. Like The False Prince The Runaway King is compulsively readable. But I wasn't that into the story. Again it takes a loooong tim...

The False Prince is very easy to read, but it's kind of a strange reading experience. It takes a loooong time for the story to get going and then the ending is quite abrupt. The twists are pretty easy to spot* especially after having reread all of Turner's The Queen's Thief series earlier this year....
