Book Review: King by Right of Blood and Might
Posted on November 4th, 2009 7 commentsBook Review: King by Right of Blood and Might
By Anna L. Walls
Young Prince Harris has been raised in isolation and has no clue how to go about being a king. His father, very much aware of how trapped and innocent his son is, arranges to have him fostered in a neighbouring country. Slowly, Harris learns what he needs to know about ruling a land. After his father’s murder, Harris strives to pull his kingdom back together, even going as far as to personally fight bandits who have taken control over his land and his people.
This fantasy story has some magical elements which adds another dimension and layer to the story. While Walls is a new writer who has self-published this story, and her writing is rough in places, she is an author to watch as she has great potential and has a natural ability to weave a tale that pulls readers into foreign lands. I rooted for Harris and you will too.
