In my personal opinion, on a scale of 1-5, I would rate this book as a 3. It's good, but it's not at the level it needs to be at. I think it was intended for young adults because of the time period, but the vocabulary is too "modern." This fictional story would have taken place around the 1600s. But the vocabulary would have been much different then, and the characters would have been talking like they were in a Shakesperean play, not a 21st century play. Frankly, kids probably younger around the age of 10 could read this book. But I think if this book were to be critiqued, it would get much better results. The title and the plot I would probably change, because of the fact that everyone wants to write fictional works about a prince and a princess, along with using a commonly used title, such as "Captured." But the creative writing is there, and if a writer can't write with creativity, then they probably won't go very far. Well done!
