Can an adopted son of a king become heir to the throne? It seems rather unlikely, but in Dr. Bill Senyard’s Tale of the Unlikely Prince, young Prince Yeled is the adopted prince who must prove his worth to become the heir apparent. In a rebellious onslaught against the king, the beloved natural-born son, Prince Sarshalom, is brutally killed in the rebellion. The king adopts Yeled to replace his son, but is it a replacement that will benefit the royal court and the community itself? Prince Yeled believes he is worthy and he’s determined to prove himself. How? By following a great quest, a heroic one, to prove himself. Can he do it?
Dr. Bill Senyard’s young adult novel, Tale of the Unlikely Prince, is a fantasy told with great flavor in the age-old art of storytelling. There is a storyteller actually sharing this story, the Royal Storyteller, Berenice, and she has a captive audience, both in the book and among readers. The language demonstrates the storyteller’s captivating mannerisms and readers will instantly feel like they belong in the audience in the story itself. The plot follows young Prince Yeled’s adoption, his desire to follow a quest, the quest and adventures themselves, and the resolution. The story promotes life-changing lessons that all young people must face at one time or another, including believing in themselves and never giving up. This adventurous epic fantasy will appeal to young adults and even a few older readers as well.
