Fresh Fiction Review

The Fallen Prince
Shea Berkley

Reviewed by Sarah Horwath

Young Adult Paranormal | Young Adult

THE FALLEN PRINCE opens a few days after the events in The Marked Son, as Dylan struggles more than ever to fit in the human world with his new, uncontrollable powers that endanger everyone around him. He and Kera also have their hands full, thanks to the weakened barrier between the human world and Teag, leaving deadly creatures free to cross.When Dylan's power threatened to reveal his true identity to the humans in town, even his loved ones were on edge, wanting to keep him safe while fearing for their own lives.

I read the first book in this series on my own and really liked this series and the second one just made me like it more. Something I didn't like was how Dylan constantly pitied himself and whined internally but we still suffer it because the book was written in first-person. I also hated how Kera didn't trust him enough and kept secrets from him, thinking ignorance would keep him safe. With Kera I felt like she gave off to much attitude to Dylan but at the same time felt like maybe he deserved to get so much attitude from her because she choose him over her family. The only other thing I disliked about this book is at times the story line is a little hard to follow and I felt like I had to keep going back to make sure I knew what was happening. I don't normally read paranormal but have read some lately and the writing style and story lines are different then what I'm used to reading.

I absolutely loved the character of Dylan in the first book and felt like he only got stronger in the second. Shea Berkley did a great job with the characters and with the overall story. THE FALLEN PRINCE is a great story with twists and turns that kept me on my toes. Anybody who reads YA paranormal will definitely like this story.

SUMMARY

There is a magical realm that exists alongside the human realm, but it wasn’t always so. The firsts are beings who were created to nurture the land. The world was split into two realms, and the firsts were allowed to redeem themselves.

Sadly, the majority continued with their self-indulgent behavior to the point where one of their own, a king, became so obsessed with power, he was secretly banished by the court in hopes his absence would calm the masses. But a spark of madness was ignited and not even the lost king's absence could curtail what he set in motion.
