In 2020, author Omid Scobie famously released Finding Freedom, the book about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex breaking away from the Royal Family.<\/p>\n

Now, the "unofficial mouthpiece" for the pair is gearing up to release his latest book, Endgame, on Tuesday, 28 November.<\/p>\n

Advertised on Amazon this week, Omid's book description reads: "An unpopular king, a power-hungry heir to the throne, a queen willing to go to dangerous lengths to preserve her image, and a prince forced to start a new life after being betrayed by his own family."<\/p>\n

The book, subtitled Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival will be released on November 28 and is likely to cause further uproar within the Royal Family. A source told The Mail: "I've been told this is bad, very bad. It is unlikely that Royal aides will comment, but if there are charges of racism, they will, of course, be robustly rebutted."<\/p>\n

Here's what the reviews are saying so far…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The New York Times<\/h3>\n

In a pithy review of Endgame, the New York Times claimed the book "reads like a press release cooked up by ChatGPT".<\/p>\n

Eva Wolchover, a writer for the publication, suggested that the book wasn't much different from Prince Harry's memoir, Spare.<\/p>\n

In his best-selling book, Harry criticised the royals on several issues, particularly their treatment of his wife, Meghan Markle.<\/p>\n

Eva also warned fans not to expect any new revelations, bluntly writing: "However, readers hoping for a final death blow of gossip will be disappointed. We've heard much of it before. From Fergie, from Diana, from Charles, from Harry, from Harry, from Harry again."<\/p>\n

The Independent<\/h3>\n

Anna Pasternak, a writer for the Independent, gave the book an average rating of three out of five stars.<\/p>\n

She described Omid's portrayal as "unfailingly sympathetic to the Sussexes" and painted William as the "real royal villain".<\/p>\n

Anna criticised Omid for not holding Meghan and Harry accountable for any mistakes. She also mentioned that the author "fully anticipates that he and his book will be discredited in the British media".<\/p>\n

"He is probably right," she added. "And he will certainly not be helped by the fact that he paints Meghan and Harry in a relentless saintly light. Harry is very much presented as the happy prince in his happy place."<\/span><\/p>\n

Endgame will be released on November 27<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
