《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'The Cursed Prince' by Tris_fire
Advertisement
The Cursed Prince is a scifi-fantasy novel about Nova, who is sent back in time to kill a creature called The Beast, a prince possessed by an evil spirit. Of course; this doesn't go smoothly and Nova ends up trapped in her mind, searching for a way out. With Nova out of the way, the Beast is free to go and mess with another kill: Medea, a girl living with her grandmother. She sees visions and possesses both fire magic and a fiery spirit. As the story unfolds, paths cross.
I was pleasantly surprised by the plot! The story is loosely based on certain fairy tales, such as Cinderella and that one tale of which I can't remember the name; The Little Match Girl? Whatever, it's just a name. All that matters is that that story always suckerpunches me in the gut, and that's also what the originality of this story does. It's very interesting!
The characters are well-written. I especially like the character of Alexander Le Vane, how he's both a very friendly guy and a Beast at the same time. He's intriguing, and I hope the story will explore him more; we don't see enough of him, in my opinion.
The GPS is decent. The story needs editing, definitely. I've encountered misspellings, punctuation errors and tense-switching. The story is good, but these issues undermine that. Fix it, is my advice. Oh, and go easy on the italics. They're a little overused.
Lastly, I also think the worldbuilding and the magic in this story stood out. Science-fiction and fantasy are always an interesting combination and it's always fun to see how the story combines science with magic. Keep that up!
