Allies and Assassins by Justin Somper

They killed his brother. Now they're coming for him...As the second prince of Archenfield, Jared never expected to rule. But behind the walls of the castle is a dark and dangerous court where murder and intrigue are never far below the surface. Now his older brother is dead. The kingdom is his. And the target is on his back. Can he find the assassin before the assassin finds him?

Heralded as the teen version of Game of Thrones, this new novel is from the author of Vampirates, and believe us when we say it has it all; murder, betrayal, intrigue, romance and political machinations galoreWorth reading if you're a fan of multi layered plots with male and female heroes that prove to be both good and bad. It's book one in a series so there's lots more to come. -- Anita Naik Most Wanted Superlative world-building and an intriguing storyline that grabs the reader from the beginning, this is an imaginative first book in a fantasy sequence that has huge potential. -- John McKlay Justin Somper can always be relied upon to create something with a unique feel about it, for example his hugely entertaining Vampirates books. Allies & Assassins follows in this vein. It is sort of a cross between Fantasy and CSI... Short chapters and the day by day format keep interest high and the characters are filled out enough to make them interesting with the hint of a romance between Asta and Prince Jared. -- David Rayner ReadPlus (Australia)
