Reviews
Powerful and Creative
"Your script is the freshest, brightest, most promising, most intelligent, most powerful and creative storytelling of these events. The first pages grab me by the throat and I just can't stop reading on and on. Good dialogue and some ‘forte’ pieces, as when Swan-Neck tells William what he really is... a bastard.
"I can't wait to see Blood Royal in the cinema. Why isn't there anyone out there who realizes the potential of this stuff?”
– Reinout Goddyn, historian & author, Charlotte & Leopold
Compelling and Entertaining
"Great story with strong characters, especially Harold and Swan-Neck. Set in a unique world. There is a good amount of tension / conflict throughout the story and good structure. There are three clear acts to the story and the mood, tone, and atmosphere are solid, which is sometimes a challenge in period piece screenplays. The story is compelling and entertaining, the characters are complex, and the theme is strong."

Authentic
"I liked it a lot... extremely well-researched and authentic, and you clearly have a sophisticated interest in telling this particular story. The characters were all solid... the whole thing seemed very credible."
– Stephen Norrington,
director of Blade, The Last Minute
