Half Upon A Time

           Half Upon A Time is a fun, fictional book by James Riley. This story takes place in the magical kingdom Blunderbush.
           The main characters is this book are first, Jack. Jack is an ordinary boy from the small town of "Giant's Hand". His father has been missing ever since that incident with a magic beanstalk, and his grandfather won't stop nagging him to go and rescue a princess like every other boy his age.
The second character, May, unexpectedly falls from the sky one evening and Jack is sure she is a princess, and that her grandmother is the long lost Snow White!  And the third character is Philip. Philip is a dashing prince who seeking revenge on the giant that killed his father.Philip is tall with brown eyes and he wears expensive attire.
            One perfectly normal day, a girl falls from the sky right in front of Jack. Jack is convinced that she is a princess and her grandmother is Snow White. May tells Jack her story: one night her house is attacked by the evil queens followers and May's grandmother is taken and captured. So, Jack and May set off on an adventure to find May's grandmother a quest that will include a dashing prince, named Philip, a couple giants, a wolf king, a dead knight and a dark secret.
            I really liked this book. It was fun and full of twists. My favorite character is the Wolf king. I definitely recommend this book.
