The plot seemed somewhat predictable which I usually frown upon, but I still enjoyed the story a lot mainly because of Sage and how utterly fascinating he is. Just when you can’t take any more snark or cheek from him, he shows an incredibly human side. Sage is the most well-written character I’ve read in a long time. Sage’s character contrasted so well with Tobias, who seemed like the kind of character that would have been the hero in most other fantasy books. He was very much a young Han Solo that lived in a kingdom instead of a galaxy far, far away. He had every characteristic that a hero shouldn’t have. The very best part of this book is the anti-hero, Sage. Yes, it follows the pattern of traditional fantasy but it didn’t take itself too seriously. The False Prince is such a refreshing fantasy book. To unify the divided people, Conner, a nobleman of the court, devises a cunning plan to find an impersonator of the king's long-lost son and install him as a puppet prince. In a discontent kingdom, civil war is brewing.
