Who would ever think that the heir to the throne
would be unable to kill a deer out on the hunt? Unable to fight illness or
walk down a long, dark corridor. Yet that's an accurate description of Llue,
heir to the throne. His older step-brother, Medraut, is the exact opposite
and seems much more suited to Llue's role in life. With dark blue eyes and
white-blond hair he is an uncanny sight. He is wise, strong and learned in
the practice of medicine, but will never be heir, even though he is the
elder of the two. Elizabeth E. Wein has written an extremely powerful story. I was drawn into the battle between the two half-brothers and could not help but feel for both of them. I loved the way there was an air of helplessness around Llue, and the way Medruat sometimes took advantage of Llue's faults, then later felt terribly about his actions. The Winter Prince is definitely a five star book. RATING: |
