Descripción

In a realm where power is elusive and alliances shift like shadows, a young ruler grapples with the consequences of her ascent to the throne. As the weight of leadership bears down on her, she must navigate a treacherous landscape filled with betrayal, secrets, and unquenchable ambition. Thorny relationships complicate her reign, forcing her to confront the darker aspects of the world she inhabits and the ruthless choices she must make.

Her bond with the enigmatic and wicked king deepens, yet it remains fraught with tension and uncertainty. Their dynamic carries the promise of both love and peril, casting doubt on whom she can truly trust. As politics intertwine with personal desires, she is caught in a web of intrigue that threatens to entrap her at every turn.

With breathtaking prose and a richly imagined fairy-tale universe, this installment weaves a tale of power struggles and heart-wrenching decisions. Readers are taken on a spellbinding journey through moral ambiguity, where hope and darkness exist hand in hand, revealing the lengths one may go to claim their destiny.

So firstly, I want to eat every single dish that Holly Black describes. I am dying to try a honeyed cake. Every time this book mentions food, I am desperate to make the same meal. Alas, I am a rubbish cook. I found this book pretty slow going, I think from being such a romantasy reader, I do have to remind myself that actually these books are more political dramas - I think advertising/TikTok etc suggests more that it's the other genre! However I did love the moments between Jude and Cardan, her confusion about her feelings flicking back and forth - they felt SO realistic! I wasn't as gripped by this book as the first, but the ENDING? YES!! Onto the next!

For some backstory to my review of this series, read my first review.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5684042024Seriously though, one of my favourite series. I love Holly Blacks writing and characters so much!The plot twists in this book had me on the edge of my seat and I read this book (and the next book) in one night.Obsessed and I will not take criticism.
