Prince. Prodigy. Mage. Perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, Falling Kingdoms, and Tamora Pierce.
This prequel novella is set before the events of The Black Mage series. Novella follows Prince Darren as a child through adolescence and his first run-in with Ryiah at the Academy of Magic. Readers discover the dark backstory between the two princes and their father, as well as the ensuing events that shaped Darren into the Academy’s most illustrious mage.
I found this just in time I was about to start First year. I found the king's treatment of his boys so awful I struggled with the violence of it (think it's the mum in me lol). I'm excited to see where this story goes as a prequel it was pretty good. Think I'm going to like this series.

I honestly don't know what happened here. I stumbled across Stalker by accident, a pretty long while after I'd read the prequel, Killer. I had really enjoyed the prequel, so I decided to read its follow-up. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. It was poorly written, Phoenix was more annoying than he was hot - in a taboo kind of way, and there was so much repetition I wanted to pull my hair out. Literally, here are just a few words that were repeated no less than 10 times throughout the whole book: "mumble, muse, squeal, thump/thumping". I persevered because the beginning said the ending would not be happy one and I was wanting to see if I had guessed correctly. I was wrong and was also disappointed in the ending.

In the second book of the Peter Pan prequel trilogy, Peter heads to London to try to warn Molly that someone is searching for the star stuff. It was a bit long winded at time, but it was still a fun read.

The novel is a prequel that sets up the Peter Pan story we all know and love. As a Peter Pan fan, I enjoyed it, although the short chapters and multiple view points made it too choppy near the end.

This was a prequel and it helped explain a lot. The characters were interesting, it was fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat. I needed to know what was coming next and who was doing what next. I love werewolves so thats normally fun and these ones weren't odd werewolves haha. I really enjoyed it and I'm glad I got to review it
