Series: The Orc Prince Trilogy by Lionel Hart

Greetings and welcome to Reviews That Burn: Series Reviews, part of Books That Burn. Series Reviews discuss at least three books in a series and cover the overarching themes and development of the story across several books. I'd like to thank longtime Patron Case Aiken, who receives a monthly shoutout. Full Audio Here   An elven prince. The son of an orc warlord. In two warring nations, their arranged marriage brings peace. They never expected to fall in love. Prince Taegan Glynzeiros has prepared since childhood to fight and lead armies against invading orc forces, the enemies of elves for hundreds of years. But after a successful peace treaty, the elven prince will not be fighting orcs, but marrying one. The first words he speaks to Zorvut are their wedding vows.

We approach him, practically skipping with excitement. Just before we can reach him however he gives a flick of his wrist and disappears in a cloud of smoke. Heather and I look at each other in stunned confusion before I feel a tug at my bag. I turn just in time to see him pull a copy of Tithe by Holly Black from my bag and disappear again. That jerk! As if things weren't hard enough. I feel the urge to punch the Wizard in his bearded face the next time we see him. I hadn't felt such an urge to deck someone since Nephamael from the book he so rudely stole.
