Book Description
Imagine...
Imagine for a moment that you're a twenty-year-old guy in college, working on a finance degree, when your divorced mother remarries -- a king. But you're happy for her, and gradually you grow used to the idea. Imagine now that several years later your stepfather tells you that he's picked you to succeed him, and the next thing you know, you're the crown prince, thrust into a world you never envisioned, complicated by a court-load of scheming royals who don't think you belong there, either. And if that weren't enough, an independent-minded princess-in-peril lands in your arms, on the run from the very laws you pledged to uphold. Outmanned and outgunned, plowed under, fish out of water -- at this point, any of those terms would describe you. Only allowing yourself to be overwhelmed is a luxury you can't afford; it seems that the entire kingdom is hurtling toward war, and you're the only one who can stop it...

5.0 out of 5 stars
different than i expected, but equally good!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Star Prince (Mass Market Paperback)
This book, the sequel to the Star King, is the story of Jaz Hamilton's son Ian and Rom B'kah's niece Tee'ah Dar (all of which appeared in Star King).Ian Hamilton is Rom's heir, and he feels this responsibilty deeply. Tee on the other hand, is trying to escape her life as a noble woman and the man she is supposed to marry. They are both sypathetic charcters and the world Ms Grant has created is very realistic! The story is written in a slightly different style to the Star King, understandable since it deals with a completely different style of character. This throws you at first, but once you get passed that it is another excellent book by a very talented author and i'm eagerly waiting for the next installment!!

WOO-HOO!,

This review is from: The Star Prince (Mass Market Paperback)
Princess Tee'ah Dar was sick of enduring life in isolation as Vash Nadah tradition demanded. In a desperate bid for freedom, Tee'ah stole a starspeeder to begin a new life doing what she loved most, flying! Ian Hamilton, an Earth dweller who was the heir to the Trade Federation and crown prince of the Vash empire, was deep undercover. He posed as Ian Stone, a trader of black market items. He was determined to bring the human people of Earth, the Vash people of Sienna, and all the people in the Federation together in peace! However, freak accidents and bad luck kept getting in the way. When his pilot died, Ian's crew was stranded on an awful world called Donavan's Blunder. Ian's critical mission would have failed right there, had a spunky pilot, Tee, not happened to appear. But neither Ian nor Tee told the other who they really were. King Romlijhian, Tee's uncle, sent Gann Truelénne after the runaway princess. To do so, Gann had to hire Lara Ros, a master tracker. Gann and Lara clashed instantly, but are forced to work together if they were to succeed. The galaxy would never be the same again! ***** In a word, "W-O-W!" And throw in a few "WOO-HOO's!" Why? Because Susan Grant has created an amazing universe with some very interesting characters to turn it upside-down! The story was well written and very believable. I could not help but cheer Tee's bravery. When the name "Susan Grant" is on the cover, readers best hold onto their seats because it's going to be one heck of a ride! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.

Disappointing sequel to The Star King,
By Sophie "sophalina" (Cardiff, Wales) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Star Prince (Mass Market Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed The Star King who portrayed both fantastical and yet at times earthy characters. In The Star Prince, Ian Hamilton is the stepson of Rom B'Kah the King. Ian has been given a mission to prove himself to his new adoptive people and so sets off to the far reaches of the galaxy in his quest. He can't fly and so hires Tee'ah to fly his space ship. She's a princess trying to break out of her family's loving clutches. Needless to say we meet several obstacles through the whole of the book but never really get to know the main characters or feel any empathy with them. There's no death-defying thrills and spills in this book- it really was a bit boring. Tee'ah comes over as a spoilt brat and Ian lacks any sort of substance- he truly is still "earthbound" with no sense of daring adventure as compared to his mother in The Star King. The side characters of Gann & Lara and Che & Ilana held more appeal and I'd like to follow their stories in more depth. The end is so wishy-washy I could not believe Ms Grant actually wrote it. It was so lame that it left a nasty taste in the mouth and a feeling of being let-down. The Star King and Once A Pirate were much better and I hope that The Star Prince was just an aberration on Ms Grant's part.
