The Cursed Princess and the Lucky Knight

 

Today's post is on The Cursed Princess and the Lucky Knight by Uta Narusawa and art by Takashi Kiriya, It is 196 pages long and is published by Cross Infinite world. The cover the two main characters on it. The intended reader is someone who likes fantasy romance stories. There is very mild foul language, no sex, and mild violence in this novel. The story is told from third person close of the characters, moving as the plot needs. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- She's got the money. but he's got all the luck!
After mysterious deaths and misfortune ravages her family and leaves plucky Duchess Sonia de Clare orphaned in the Royal Abbey, Sonia is forced to take matters into her own hands when the king orders her into an arranged marriage to fulfill her duty as the surviving heiress to the massive Clare fortune.
Fully prepared to marry the dashing prince of the kingdom and retake her home Sonia is only met with disappointment when she discovers who her mysterious groom to be is.
But when her own castle turns against her in a series of horrifying supernatural phenomena, Sonia quickly discovers te noble knight Sir Cristford Cortot is far more capable of protecting his cursed princess than any foppish prince ever could!

Review- A very fun, quick read with cute characters and a fun setting. Sonia is the last living member of the powerful de Clare family and she has been protected for most of her life. Protected both from the curse and from knowledge of the curse, her godfather, the king feared that she would give into despair if she knew that her family were murdered and now she was next. Sir Cristford is a blessed and powerful knight, so blessed in fact that the pope believes that Cristford can protect Sonia as she goes to defeat the cursed and the one who cast it. The art for this light novel is good, I would liked more illustrations as they added a lot to the story. This is a good, fun romance read, the translation is pretty good, and the characters are fun. Sonia is brave and even when she felt scared and unsure about what she should do, she never give up. Cristford is a good male lea, he is funny, brave, and willing to whatever it takes to help and save Sonia. The love story is in the background but very sweet. I would like to read more by this author. 

I give this novel a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this light novel with my own money.
