The False Prince | September 28, 2011

by Jennifer Nielsen (Scholastic, Apr. 2012)

The+False+Prince

This Wednesday’s pick of the week is The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen. It’s an epic tale that has everything—a failing kingdom, a brewing civil war, a beautiful princess, a deceitful nobleman, lots of political intrigue and plotting (both the good and the bad kind), and a young thief named Sage at the center. This swashbuckling adventure ends in a twist that will remind you of Megan Whelan Turner and leave you eager for the next chapter of Sage’s story. The False Prince is being published in April 2012 though, so you’ll have to be patient. Or, better yet, make a friend with someone at Scholastic!
