The novel has everything you want in a fantasy: intertwining sword scenes, the battles of a war, kings, queens, knights, magic, fairies, love, sex, great beasts, and unthinkable dangers that the main protagonist, Natharr, Guardian of Maarihk, has to endure.
In the story, the baby heir of the overthrown king is taken by Natharr and the baby’s wet nurse, Darshelle, into a magical forest to save him from a certain death and to prepare the child for his rightful position as ruler.
Mr. Kilpack puts you there in the middle of the child’s life path as Vikari, crown prince of Maarihk, starts to grow and learn. So does Natharr for he begins to love the child as his own.
Then you add Mr. Kilpack's ability to crystally describe a scene, which made me feel like I was there taking part in a meal or a sword fight, which made the novel even more pleasing.
Crown Prince is part a series, the New Blood Saga, and although some chapters were lengthy, once I grasped the author's perspective, it flowed smoothly and I can add that any fan of fantasy will rejoice knowing that this is just the first book in a captivating series.
If you have never read a fantasy novel (like me), this one will get you hooked into the genre. ( )
