A very much non-standard fairy tale. Contains humor, terror, a High Warlock, A Princess, a Prince, a 30 ft dragon that has two gas attacks in the King's Courtroom, a talking unicorn that is a logical, sensible coward unless he's angry, Traitors, a magical castle that somewhat resembles the Doctor's Tardis, a South Wing that has been missing for 32 years. If you love non standard stories that take the old ways of doing things and turns em on their ear, man, is this a book for you. On a scale of 1 to 5, I give this book a 97.

Loved the intro: 'This isn't one of the them'. For those who love opera's, this is one of them! Full of heroes, villains, swordplay, drama and humor. I don't know how many times I've readed this or the Deathstalker series but I just don't seem to get tired of reading these over and over again!

irreverent, witty, heartfelt, with high stakes, high jinks, high adventure, and satisfying action. one of the best fantasy offerings i've ever read.
