The Bonnie Isles Trilogy Blog Tour

YA Fantasy has always been a favorite genre of mine, but lately I've been reading a lot of different books so it was nice to get back "home" you know? I'm glad I did that with this trilogy because it's really good - thanks to Electively Paige for recommending. Today I will be sharing my thoughts on the first book in this trilogy, but I loved the other two just as much and will be sharing those reviews later in the week. You can buy the entire trilogy for one low price in a boxed set now so I really recommend going that route because once you start you're not going to want to stop.

A Young Adult Historical Fantasy the Whole Family Will Love.

A True Prince

A long time ago in a faraway island kingdom, two friends discover the key to a mystery that, once unlocked, will change everything. Enemies they didn't know they had unleash magical forces to make sure the secret never comes to light.

To Make a King

Dark magic undermines Sebastian’s succession, and Edward is encouraged to take action against his half-brother in a plot to usurp the crown. Before the sun sets on coronation day, brother will face brother and swords will be bared.

Should Monarchs Stumble

When the new king stumbles, an old enemy is quick to take advantage, conspiring to take the kingdom by force. The king’s jester must decide whether to back the usurper, or help the king choose to be a better man.

My Thoughts on A True Prince:

Being a big YA Fantasy fan this entire trilogy sounded like one I couldn't wait to read. I'm a senior in high school now, but I have a feeling that I will be reading YA well into adulthood. There is just something about the characters that amazing authors like Kristi L. Cramer create that will always be easy for me to relate to. Kristi's A True Prince was equal parts entertaining and descriptive. I really became a part of the story as I got swept up in the mystery of Sebastian's origins. I honestly finished long before I thought it should be over, not because it left me with a cliffhanger - far from it - simply because I wasn't ready to put the book down. I was quite thankful I could immediately pick up To Make a King and read on. 

If you like your YA Fantasy dipped in historical accuracy with top notch writing and characters that perfectly compliment the story give A True Prince a go. Let me know whether or not you liked it as much as I did, and stay tuned for my review of To Make a King!
