Kingdom Come is an interesting twist on a fairy tale retelling. The protagonist, Harold, has grown out of being creative and his imagination if you will until he is thrown into a fantasy world where he must help the inhabitants fulfill a prophecy of five queens.
These queens are fairy tale characters we know and love. For example, Snow White, though there are some other characters that aren’t as well known which was nice to see. Their stories have ended and Harold needs to help them continue but it’s not an easy road.
To say this plot was unique is an understatement. The storyline was well done and thought outside the box in terms of fantasy and fairy tales. All the characters were fun though I’ll admit I didn’t agree with Harold’s age. He’s 17 and this is a YA novel, but it gave more middle-grade vibes to me due to the way he acted and some of his dialogue choices.
It took me a bit to get into the story. The beginning was kind of slow for me and when searching for the five queens, it felt repetitive (and sometimes predictable) at times. But overall, I enjoyed this book and it was well done. It’s definitely worth a try if you’re a fan of fantasy and fairy tales.
Rating: 4/5 Coffee Cups
