Story4.5 out of 5 stars 191
Imprisoned pickpocket Loth isn't sure why a bunch of idiots just broke into his cell claiming they’re here to rescue the lost prince of Aguillon, and he doesn’t really care. They’re looking for a redheaded prince, and he’s more than happy to play along if it means freedom. Then, his cranky cellmate Grub complicates things by claiming to be the prince as well. Now, they’re fleeing across the country, and Loth’s stuck sharing a horse and a bedroll with Grub while imitating royalty, eating eel porridge, and dodging swamp monsters and bandits.

Immature
Reviewed: 06-15-21
This was honestly a struggle to finish. The humor is repetitive and very immature, and there's only one or two characters who are likeable, most of them are just annoying for comedic purposes. The plot has a lot of holes and the ending feels forced and makes no sense. If you removed all of the sexual content, you could probably rebrand this is a children's book.

A waste of time.
Reviewed: 04-10-19
I've got to be honest, this book was a struggle to get through. Book one of this series was okay, but this one sounds like it was written by someone who's very inexperienced. The two main characters are totally unrelatable. They don't respond to situations in ways that are believable and are prone to lengthy bouts of emotional monologuing. But that aside, it could have still been passingly interesting if the narrator didn't make me want to grit my teeth. I dealt with it in book one because I was at least somewhat interested in the plot, but in this one it was the final nail in the coffin. He speaks like he's a robot doing a poor imitation of how real humans speak, which is made worse by the script he was given and the fact that he doesn't know how to use correct intonation and that he repeatedly mispronounces common words that children could get right. Overall, this is a total flop.
