I thought I'd share this Title with all of you. It is a fantastic fantasy book by John Moore. I really enjoyed this book, it made me laugh so hard it is unlike any other fantasy/fairy tale/romance story.

The title alone intrigues me. Can you give us a basic plot summary of the book?

yes I can and i will try not to give away and good juicey information. The Unhandsome Prince is about a girl named Caroline and her plan to live "happily ever after." It begins with her kissing all the frogs in the swamp to of course find the prince! Well, as it turns out he's not so handsome. And so begins this wildly quirky fair tale about Caroline and a sorceress in traning travel to the Prince's castle and the character's they meet and their interactions with the Prince's older and handsomer brothers.

Heh. Sounds like a comical breaking of the cliche. I'll try to read it once I get the time to do so. Classes are evil by making me read so much that I have little time to read books for my own personal enjoyment, but it's always nice to come across something that sounds different and intriguing.

I love fractured fairy tales! I'll have to inter-library loan to get it. All I can find in my system is Bad Prince Charlie and A Fate Worse than Dragons by the same author.

I got into John Moore's books with Heroics for Beginners, and I picked up every one of his books that I could find...except this one. I couldn't find it anywhere! They never had it in the bookstore, and it made me very unhappy and frustrated.
Then, a few months ago, I found it in one of the bargain racks at the check-out line at a grocery store for some three bucks. Go figure.
