The Prince of Shadows

By Curt Benjamin

Book 1 of the Seven Brothers trilogy. Llesho is a young slave, forced to dive for pearls every day. But he remembers a time when he lived in a grand palace with his dad and mom, the King and Queen, his baby sister and his six older brothers. Llesho saw his parents and baby sister murdered and the palace and the royal city sacked by fierce barbarian invaders. Llesho was carried off and sold into slavery. One day, while diving for pearls, it is revealed to him that he must find his brothers and save the lost kingdom. But he is just a child and a slave. What can he possibly do?
An interesting start to the trilogy with a strongly Eastern flavor; an enjoyable read.
