Heir, Apparently by Kara McDowell
4.25
At the end of The Prince & The Apocalypse, I think every reader wants to know, “But what happens next???” I know I sure did when I read it.
Heir, Apparently picks up—spoiler alert for book one—a bit after the apocalypse is averted. (Sorry, y’all. I figure if you know there’s a book two, you probably also know that the world doesn’t end in the first one.) Wren is about to start college at Northwestern with her best friend, Naomi, at her side. Theo is about to be coronated as the King of England.
They haven’t talked to each other since Comet Week.
And he has her dog.
When Theo and a couple of his siblings bring Comet along with them for a royal tour in Canada, Wren sees it as her chance to see Comet (Theo) again, but things don’t exactly go as planned.
It seems like disaster seems to follow Theo and Wren everywhere.
As with The Prince & The Apocalypse, plan to suspend your disbelief for this one, and strap in for a fun ride. I didn’t enjoy Heir, Apparently quite as much as the first book, but I liked the additional characters on the journey this time around, especially Henry, who loves to push Theo’s buttons, the chemistry and romantic pull between Theo and Wren, and the added tension of whether or not a relationship between the two is possible as he prepares for his coronation.
I had advance copies of both the ebook and the audiobook. Laura Knight Keating’s narration captures the youthfulness of this cast of characters. I liked her vocal choices, and she portrays both the British and American accents well.
I received an advance copy of the ebook from Wednesday Books and an advance copy of the audiobook from RBmedia, both via NetGalley. All review opinions are my own.
