My favorites are Duncan and Frederic, naturally! It took me one page (well, a few sentences really) to make me realize that this book was going to steal every bit of my day until I finished it. Even cooler, I loved that this attention to the princes and getting them a fair shake as heroes does not come at the expense of the princesses.Ĭhristopher Healy created well drawn and endearing characters, especially the heroes: Liam with his traditional Prince Charming-ness, the goofy Duncan with his magical good luck, Gustav and his brash stubborness, and Frederic with his surprisingly huge heart and wit. In a word, "The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom" is fittingly, and utterly CHARMING! I loved the imaginative spin on classic fairy tales and the fitting attention paid to the Princes Charming as they embark on their own adventures to be considered worthy of their respective princesses.
