The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom

Description

A fast-paced and hilarious fantasy quest in the grand tradition of Shrek and The Princess Bride, starring four very unlikely, but likeable, heroes. Prince Liam. Prince Frederick. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You've never heard of them, have you? But you've probably heard of Prince Charming, the guy who rides in at the last minute to save the girl. Well that's them, all four of them. They are all Prince Charmings. Only in reality, they are a little less heroic than you might expect. One day, cast out of their castles for one reason or another, the four Prince Charmings stumble upon each other, then shortly afterwards, upon an evil plot to bring about the downfall of the kingdom. Can the princes stop their bickering, overcome their failings and become the heroes the stories always said they were?
