Tale of the Unlikely Prince

Kingdom Quest Book #1

Tale of the Unlikely Prince is the first book in the Kingdom Quest Series which combines thrilling adventure, epic fantasy, great characters, humor, and life-changing lessons for young teens and tweens.

18-year-old Prince Yeled wanted to finally prove to his adoptive father that he was worthy of being the prince heir. But what could he possibly do? He asks for a quest—no, a great quest—no, a heroically astonishing quest—challenging enough to prove his enoughness and finally earn the King’s respect and love. Yeled will learn through thrilling, quirky, and sometimes unbelievable twists and turns that not all quests are what they might seem, and, more importantly, this King is definitely not what he appears.

“Don’t you dare look at me like that young woman,” Nabal commanded his teen daughter, Berenice. “It’s time for ya’ to become a productive member of our family. No more freeloading. He grabbed a pair of old rusty shears and swiftly removed nearly all her long, straight, dirty white hair—no explanation or no apology. “My hair? Da’ what’s happening?” she complained loudly, now squirming but to no avail. “There ya’ are. See?” said Nabal, standing back to admire his vile handiwork. “You make quite a striking lad, don’t you think? You’re as tall as one, that’s for sure. You were never very beautiful anyway, not like some girls. I think this will do fine. From now on, your name is Bear. Say it! Let’s go.”

Witness the captivating epic fantasy adventure of a girl on her long-awaited quest for genuine hope, identity, and emotional healing at last.

“The Storyteller’s Tale,” dives deep into the realms of fantasy, adventure, emotional healing and empowerment. In this gripping sequel, Berenice, the kingdom’s renowned storyteller, faces an ordeal that threatens to unravel her carefully guarded secrets. Abducted by cutthroat pirates, she finds herself at the heart of a mysterious plot that seeks to expose her darkest, long-buried truths.

The Garden Tale

In this thrilling third installment of the award-winning Kingdom Quest Trilogy, young readers will follow the elite team as they face a kingdom where the citizens believe their king no longer exists.

The Tale of the Orphan Magician

Kingdom Quest Book #4

War is coming to Amaratzim—and no one knows who’s behind it.

Is it the shadowy terrorist faction known as the BLA? The newly united dwarven kingdom of Gridaria, desperate for power and riches? Or do the seeds of conflict stretch back centuries, to a forgotten feud between the continent’s legendary founders?

Some blame the enigmatic King of Garden City, whose true identity is cloaked in secrecy. Others say darker forces are at work. Amid the chaos, a single orphaned street teen may hold the key to saving everything. But how can one underestimated boy stand against empires, legends, and the weight of ancient secrets? He may not be who you think he is. And neither is the King.

One character believes it all boils down to a single, subconscious drive shared by every species. Could that really explain it all?

A gripping blend of high-stakes adventure, rich fantasy, unforgettable characters, and deep truths, this is a story that will both thrill and challenge young readers.

 

Shadowbound

Kingdom Quest Book #5

An Allegory of the Book of Job.

He was chosen for his loyalty.
Now he’ll be tested by betrayal, loss… and silence.

A deadly game he never chose to play.

Reggie never thought a street magician like him could become a hero. But after catching the eye of the Great King, he rose from orphan to knight—respected, celebrated, and finally seen.

Until everything is taken.

Far above, in the throne room of Garden City, a bizarre wager has been made. The cunning gorgon Dolos believes humanity is weak and unworthy of the King’s devotion. His proposal? Strip Reggie of all the King has given him—his friends, his honor, even his magic man-bag Felix—and Reggie will fall like the rest.

Unaware of the cosmic test he’s been thrown into, Reggie is cast into a journey of seven impossible trials. He will face lies, loneliness, and the dark voices that whisper he’s been abandoned. And through it all, he must answer one question:

What remains when everything is taken?

For fans of The Book of Job, Narnia, and Percy Jackson, Shadowbound is a powerful teen fantasy about unseen battles, unshakable faith, a mysterious king and the quiet strength of the human heart.

Some trials aren’t meant to break you… just reveal you.

PRAISE for Tale of the Unlikely Prince

“Tale of the Unlikely Prince follows the style and impact of a C.S. Lewis fiction spellbinder for teens and young adults alike. It’s also the perfect birthday or holiday gift to both entertain and inspire with eternal truths embedded in a page-turning thriller. Make certain you share this book with every young person you know!” 

-Dr. Larry Keefauver, Bestselling Author and International Teacher.

Booklife Review: 8 out of 10!

This charming and playful young adult novel follows young Prince Yeled as he attempts to prove he is worthy of the throne and embarks on a philosophical, Candide-like quest. Senyard’s tongue-in-cheek style is entertaining and appropriate for the nature of the storytelling, effectively meshing a Cervantes-adjacent tone with modern allusions and embellishments. Senyard crafts a unique premise with a fresh and fascinating moral puzzle at its center. 

“Life Changing Book! Such humor in young adult books is very much appreciated. This book does it very well.”

Larry Yoder, Publisher’s Representative and Developmental Editor.

“Chronicles of Narnia meets Princess Bride. I loved it!”

I was filled with immense gratitude!

“At the end of the book, I was filled with immense gratitude and extreme conviction. I made 40 annotations in this 121-page book, a new record that speaks to how much this book continuously spoke to me. It’s a fantastic book that I would recommend to anyone of any age to take the time to read. Sometimes, it’s the most profound truths communicated so simply that make a real difference. Apparently, this is only the first book, so I’ll be looking forward to reading other truths Dr. Senyard has to share!”

“Not all quests are the same, and this King is not what he appears to be.”

~ Tale of the Unlikely Prince

I am a huge fan of C.S. Lewis and his Chronicle of Narnia tales. Lewis is reported to have said late in his life, “If I had to do it all over again, I would write more children’s books…because adults read them.” The Kingdom Quest series in the same genre as Chronicles. It is faith-based without being preachy, life-changing without being shaming, and just a heck of a lot of fun. Someone described Tale of the Unlikely Prince as “Chronicles meets Princess Bride.” That’s about right.

– Dr. Bill Senyard

The Last Quest

Kingdom Quest book for adult career businessmen and women. 

This is a fictional story about Harvey, a successful entrepreneur who is about to find all of his hard work disintegrate into nothingness and void. Not his fault. He is a good man, he is a Christian, but neither seem to make any difference right now.

Then, he stumbles upon a book for teens on his absent wife’s nightstand, a young adult fantasy about dragons and quests called Tale of the Unlikely Prince. It is a fun, quirky, and adventurous book about an insecure teenage prince who demands that the King send him on a very special quest—no an amazing great quest, one like none other before or since. On that quest both the prince and Harvey (hopefully) will learn that not all quests are the same and that this King is not what he seems.

It is in and through that little book that Harvey just might find something very special that he didn’t even know he was missing or looking for in all the wrong places. Curious?
