Review of The King’s Questioner

Review (4 Stars): What a great story!! This was an epic adventure that had me at the edge of my seat.  Kalen was an interesting character who had the ability to access everyone’s deep, dark secrets with just the touch of his hand.  When he finds that there is a long lost princess, he bands together with his friends to bring her home to save the Kingdom. Or die trying.  Wonderful adventure!
