The Hero’s Guide to Storming the Castle by Christopher Healy
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. – Christopher Healy
Previously in the book, The Hero’s Guide to saving your Kingdom, all the Princes defeat the evil witch, Zaubera, whose plan was to capture all the bards from all the Kingdoms and secretly plan a spectacular hero vs villain showdown. But the story does not end there. Ever since the League of Heroes saved their Kingdoms from the clutches of Zaubera, the evil witch, you’d think they would have earned a little bit of respect. In this book, Briar Rose plans to get married to Prince Liam of Erinthia. Prince Liam doesn’t want to marry her so instead she sends her personal bodyguard to capture Liam. When Liam and finds out the reason Briar wants to marry him, he cannot believe that he was fooled. It’s time to reunite League of Princes (Prince Duncan, Prince Frederic, Prince Gustav and of course Liam) back. The gang soon realizes what Briar is wishing for. It was a precious gem that was carved to control the mind and body. With that Briar could control all the Kingdoms and rule the world, so she could take advantage of Liam to find the jewel. But at the end, the jewel ends up in the wrong hand.
I enjoyed this book more than any other book I’ve read. The humor, adventure and effort the author Christopher Healy put in this book and the series is magnificent. I enjoyed this book because it had that feeling; that feeling when you read one page of the book you can’t resist getting your hands off the book. This book made me laugh and it made me feel like I was a character in the book while reading it.
I would give this book a rating of 5 stars (*****/*****) because I liked the suspense and how the characters would react to one another and now I’m ready to read the last book in this series.
