A Reading from The Hero's Guide to Being an Outlaw by Christopher Healy!


Well, the time has come for the final HERO'S GUIDE book, so as part of Fairy Tale Fortnight AND the Hero's Guide blog tour, I thought I'd read you a little bit of the beginning, to give you a feel for the book!
Make sure you keep an eye out later today for a character reveal & giveaway of the entire series!




ABOUT THE BOOK:
The Hero's Guide to Being an Outlaw by Christopher Healy
Get It | Add It
Middle Grade Adventure/Retelling, 320 pages
Published April 29th 2014 by Walden Pond Press
The League of Princes returns in the hilariously epic conclusion to the hit series that began with Christopher Healy's The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom, which the Los Angeles Times called "one of the more clever, hilariously successful incarnations of the current literary rage to rip apart and rewrite fairy tales."

Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You think you know those guys pretty well by now, don't you? Well, think again. Posters plastered across the thirteen kingdoms are saying that Briar Rose has been murdered—and the four Princes Charming are the prime suspects. Now they're on the run in a desperate attempt to clear their names. Along the way, however, they discover that Briar's murder is just one part of a nefarious plot to take control of all thirteen kingdoms—a plot that will lead to the doorstep of an eerily familiar fortress for a final showdown with an eerily familiar enemy.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Christopher Healy is the author of the Hero's Guide trilogy: The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom, The Hero's Guide to Storming the Castle, and coming in spring 2014, The Hero's Guide to Being an Outlaw. The series is a comedic adventure that follows the exploits of four different Prince Charmings in the aftermath of their not-quite-accurate fairy-tale fame. It is published on May 1st, 2012, by Walden Pond Press, an imprint of HarperCollins. A film version is currently in development at Fox Animation/Blue Sky Studios.

Chris lives in New Jersey with his wife, two children, and a dog named Duncan. Visit him at ChristopherHealy.com. And learn more about the Hero's Guide universe at OfficialHerosGuide.com.

  8. Fun middle-grade-ness! I read the first book, and I loved it. I recommend it to everyone, though they don't always appreciate the humor. (Silly, people.)
