Reviews- 4/4 Stars - "Crown Prince stands out with amazing descriptions, complex characters, and intriguing supernatural elements. The storyline is incredibly promising. The author has a flair for setting the scene and creating memorable characters. I absolutely loved the descriptive prowess of this author ... Kilpack genuinely takes the time to help us immerse in the fantasy world, no matter if he describes a battle scene, a peaceful moment, or a mythological creature like a Hamadryad or a Manticore, he always manages to conjure the best images in our minds. The author does a great job of incorporating the supernatural elements in a general atmosphere of myth and legend. There was nothing I disliked about this novel. Fans of sword and sorcery fantasy will definitely find this novel a delightful read. The series has the potential to acquire epic dimensions. I am looking forward to reading the sequel, Order of Light." - OnlineBookClub.org- 5/5 Stars - "Crown Prince is one of the most brilliant fantasy novels that I have ever had the pleasure of reading and a book I am now obsessed with! Crown Prince is an incredible, thrilling and memorable story that will take its readers on a journey like no other. The story captivated me from the first page thanks to the book's sharp literature and strong opening ... [the author] is not only a phenomenal writer for his flawless ability to capture his reader's attention, but he is also a great writer for his descriptive powers and characterization of characters which will hook his readers! Crown Prince is a sensational, thrilling and addictive story that will thrill you as well as entertain you." - RedHeadedBookLover.com- 5/5 Stars - "Crown Prince was such a delight to read! Normally, we don't see the child growing up ... or really get a chance to get attached to whoever raised him. This author took that trope, shook it up and turned it into something amazing! We get to see the heir as a baby, to see him grow up [and] develop that close bond a son has with his father. It's a really beautiful thing ... normally glazed over ... but you get to see how strong their bond is. I'm so grateful! I really enjoyed how well Darshelle and Natharr played off each other. They have deep conversations that involve a culture clash, where they may not agree with each other's perspective, but they are willing to try to understand. I [also] loved this author's world building, especially the magic forest and all the interesting creatures that live in it! If you don't grab Crown Prince, you're doing yourself a huge disservice!" - Madam Crystal Butterfly- 5/5 Stars - "Kilpack delivers a stunning blow to the belief that Indie-Fantasy is worth any less that its salt. Crown Prince is a well-crafted epic with unique plot mechanisms, well-developed and believable characters, and a world grounded in the visceral and the real. I could not recommend this series any higher!" - Clay Vermulm, co-host of
