At my age, I have outgrown fantasy reads, so I am not excited about Clovis and his motley team's quest to save Princess Abigail. I am sure many young people will be enthralled with this series, though.

A cursed keep that only appeared once every hundred years, the king’s daughter, Princess Abigail, trapped inside, many brave heroes trying to free the princess and break the curse all sound like quite an intriguing story. I am curious to see if Clovis, a young paladin in training, manages to break the curse and save the princess. Congratulations on BOTD.

This sounds like a memorable fantasy book. Thank you for your review! It makes me want to discover all these characters and their quest. Will they be able to free the princess? I can't wait to find out.
Congrats on making it to BOTD!

This is an interesting story, as it is full of puzzles in the fantasy genre. Where is the princess trapped in the cursed castle. About how they saved the princess from the curse

Post by Ogunkoya Mayowa »

This is a sci-fi book that talks about the story of how the king's daughter, Princess Abigail was trapped inside the cursed keep and many heroes tried to save her but all failed until 500 years later when a new hero called Clovis appeared and wanted to try his luck to save the princess. I like how the book characters are unique and how the author's writing style is conversational. Nice review.

The thrill of exploring the lost keep was palpable. The uncertainty around each door and the possibility of encountering traps or monsters added an exhilarating edge to the story. Can't wait to see what's in store for the characters next.
