Yes Laurent has blue eyes and blond hair now if you’d please talk about something else? I should’ve kept count on all the times those things were mentioned because the list would be rather long and probably entertaining. I found it to be extremely dull that the same thing was repeated over and over and over again. The descriptive words used were exactly the same as in the last book, which made it utterly boring to read at some points. It would be quite radical to be able to change ones way to write in between two books only. The language didn’t get massively improved from the first book, which was to be expected. Plot-wise there was more going on in this second volume of the series than there was in the first one, which now seems more like 240 pages of prologue than a first volume to the series. It’s quite predictable that not everything is going to go as planned (I mean seriously, when do things go as planned, name one book I dare you) and they end up in both awkward and alarming situations from which they keep surviving from thanks to Laurent’s ability to outwit nearly anyone. The book picks up from where the first book ended, with Damen leaving with Laurent’s men to border duty. Now I would’ve given this 2½ stars if possible, but since not, I’m going to be generous and give it a three because you know what, I’m forgiving like that. Help me out if you know better, leave a comment, educate me.īOOK: Captive Prince: Volume Two / Prince’s Gambit Is it Captive Prince Book I, Book II and then out of the blue jumps King’s Rising as the third book? Or is it Captive Prince, Prince’s Gambit and King’s Rising, which would make more sense. Pacat, but I still managed to go through quite a rollercoaster of feelings whilst reading it.Īlso I am confused by the names of the books in this series. After reading the first book I knew I had to lower my expectations for the second book in the Captive Prince trilogy by C.S.
