review 1: I liked the world and the characters, and I would have rated this much higher, but...This book badly needs an editor, and it's not just the incorrect or missing punctuation. I lost track of the number of times where the author simply used the wrong word. Usually I could figure out what it should have been, but unfortunately that was not always the case. I think I would really have enjoyed this book if I hadn't repeatedly been pulled out of the story to figure out what it was supposed to be saying.
review 2: Great idea for a book, the synopsis is good. However, the book's proofreading leaves something to be desired in places - I cannot help wondering what "a depilated looking bridge" would be like. I'm guessing there would be no hairy moments in crossing over!
... more The author can't seem to decide whether to refer to Our Hero as "the illegitimate prince" (what the heck? He's either illegitimate - and hence not a prince - or he's a prince) or "the prince" (see previous point!). And the lady's maid is "the ladies maid". And these phrases were repeated a LOT throughout the novel. Too much."... scared all occupants of the room, expect himself." EXPECT instead of except? Oh dear.There are more books in the series, all with good, interesting sounding synopses, but... I'm not sure. I lost interest around 80% through and only finished reading it because... well, actually, I'm not sure why I bothered. Boredom, possibly. Annoying, because the idea is good, but for me the execution was flawed. less
