The second book in the Seven Kingdoms Fairy Tale series is all about exploring–with a prince who has no sense of direction!
Just for fun, here are the real castles that inspired the Blackfly and the Saffron Kingdoms. LOST WITH LEEKS stars the Blackfly Prince Nero and the Saffron royal twins: Prince Magellan and Princess Saffy!
