My heart hasn't beat in a thousand years. I haven't uttered a word in prison, and the guards keep their distance. If they get too close, they die--until at last, my magic binds my soul to another. Unfortunately, the person destined to save me is a Night Elf--the enemy of my kind. And yet, when I see her in the cell across from mine, an ember starts to burn in my chest. When we escape together down the palace walls, it’s almost like I can feel again. As we journey to find the magic that will save us both, attraction simmers between us. But I keep my secrets close. Because if she finds out what I am, she will find a way to kill me--even if it means sacrificing herself to do it.

The Cursed Prince tackles so many different genres and does so without getting lost in the details. I didn’t think that a dystopian-elfin-fantasy novel could be well written, but this novel proved me wrong. The Cursed Prince is gripping, and it’s the uniqueness of this world that kept me entranced.
Additionally, reading Ali’s inner thoughts was a delightful experience. Ali’s a trained assassin and wields a magical sword and a teleporting crystal. Ali is fiercely protective of her brother and a lover of Rick Astley and his hit song “Never Gonna Give You Up.” To sum it all up, Ali is super awesome.
Meanwhile, Marroc mainly enjoys his existence in his small cell, lusting for blood staring at his pet rat. Is he a vampire in addition to a sorcerer? I don’t know it’s never explicitly stated if Marroc is a vampire, but shoot he might be.
