I can see the similarities between the Once Upon A Broken Heart series, and this one since they both have a prophecy aspect. As for the other authors that this book is being compared to, I have not read any of their books so I cannot say for them. I also see a similarity between Stephanie Garber's writing style and this one. Still, it almost reminded me of Lauren Roberts’ writing style or even Holly Black's.
The characters reminded me of the ones in The Cruel Prince, especially the MMC. He reminded me a lot of Cardan, which I quite enjoyed. But it was almost like I didn’t know the characters which I understand because this is the first book in a series that I did not realize before today, looking at it on Goodreads. Another book, this reminds me of is The Stolen Heir; the sort of adventurous feel of it, and also Dance of Thieves where I remember a lot of similarities there as well. Those two, I feel should've been mentioned in the list of books Prochecy is similar to.
I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to finish this book because I’m not in a fantasy mood right now but I flew through it. It was quite fast-paced. It kept me entertained the whole time. The dialogue was fantastic! Almost up there with Holly Blacks and Lauren Roberts! I will definitely be purchasing this book when it comes out in January and am very glad that I read it, and discovered a new series for me to obsess over!
The lore/world-building in this book was very well flushed out for the most part. I still do feel like I have some questions at the end, which is completely okay because again this is the first book in a series. Normally that happens in the first books. There was one particular character that drove me insane the whole entire time. He just kept failing and failing and not accepting it, and I was quite annoyed with him. I will not say his name to avoid spoilers.
I’m trying to avoid spoilers this entire time because I would feel so bad if I were the one who spoiled it when this book comes out next year! Overall, I did like the two main characters, especially the MMC. I enjoyed him very much because of his dialogue and his banter with the FMC. I loved that! Now I am a bit upset that I have to wait until not next year, but possibly the previous year to find out what happens. I'm on a cliff here and I don’t like it!
Anyway, if you enjoyed Dance of Thieves, Once Upon a Broken Heart, Powerless, or any book in the Folk of the Air universe you would enjoy this. What a great true young adult book!!

It was a fun read! I don't know if it does justice to the description but it was a quick and interesting book to read. A very positive point was Persephone, I really liked her character!!
