June 2012 Debut of the Month .
Full of excitement with twists and turns throughout this is a book that can be devoured in a sitting particularly if you love the danger and sword-fighting of 'Merlin'. Sage is a 14 year old orphan boy whose determination knows no bounds even when he becomes an imposter as a puppet prince to the king. Sage can trust no one for treachery and deceit is everywhere.
In a discontented kingdom, civil war is brewing. To unify the divided people, Conner, a nobleman of the court, devises a cunning plan to find an impersonator of the king's long-lost son and install him as a puppet prince Four orphans are recruited to compete for the role, including a defiant boy named Sage. Sage knows that Conner's motives are more than questionable, yet his life balances on a sword's point - he must be chosen to play the prince or he will certainly be killed.

'If the publishers of The Hunger Games know how to do one thing, it's give us stories filled with drama and danger that we can't put down. Their next must-read trilogy is called The False Prince , and we think you'll devour it the way you did The Hunger Games. ' - Seventeen
