Nuestros lectores opinan: «Una novela juvenil que nos ofrece una historia original, con giros en su trama y un protagonista peculiar, un antihéroe que se enfrenta a una situación límite.» Blog Me gustan los libros «Aquí nos encontramos con una historia dirigida a ese público juvenil que, por primera vez, se acerca a la fantasía. Una novela bastante buena con frases sencillas y sugerentes que encajan perfectamente con lo que se está contando. Todo transcurre muy deprisa, con capítulos bastante largos en los que no dejan de suceder cosas. Y al final de ellos, se utiliza mucho el recurso del cliffhanger (muy R. Martin).» Blog Los libros de mi vida «Saturados en estos instantes como estamos de novelas futuristas, echaba de menos leer algo con un corte un tanto más clásico. EnEl falso príncipe nos topamos con una novela ambientada en un mundo medieval, bastante sencilla pero aun así muy interesante y recomendable.» Blog A la sombra del cuento
