The False Prince

Written by Jennifer A. Nielsen

A book for readers in grades 5 and up reviewed by Katya

    

The False Prince follows the story of four boys competing with each other to be chosen by Bevin Conner, a noble in the kingdom of Carthya, to succeed in his plan of creating a false prince. Sage, one of the four boys, is the center of attention. His wit and quick mouth make him someone of interest. He knows that what Conner is doing is wrong, yet he has no other choice but to play along and be the best. Otherwise, he will be faced with death. 

The False Prince is one of my top five favorite books. Many truths and lies are revealed throughout, and it leaves the reader on the edge of their seat. The characters are easy to fall in love with and stay with you. The plot is also amazing, as it really is captivating. Personally, I did not expect the things that happened in the book to occur. I was always entertained, and not once did I get bored. The False Prince is perfect for those who like action, mystery, and adventure. It even has a sprinkle of romance.
