But the throne of the Hundred Thousand Kingdoms is not easily won, and Yeine finds herself thrust into a vicious power struggle with a pair of cousins she never knew she had.
As she fights for her life, she comes ever closer to discovering the truth about her mother’s death and her family’s bloody history—as well as the unsettling truths within herself.
With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Yeine will learn how perilous it can be when love and hate are bound inseparably together . . . for both mortals and gods alike...
Not one of my favourite reads.
ReplyDeleteThe only redeeming feature was that the first person narrative revealed a very interesting, warm and sensitive character in Yeine Darr.
I thought the plot was too cumbersome and many of the names were similar, leading to confusion.
I struggled to finish it and found the ending to be way out even in the fantasy realm.
I didn't like this at all ,didn't leave it on the plane !!
ReplyDelete( since it is Melanie's book)
didn't read it all but just found it yuk!!
Sorry Mel.
This book was a little hard to get into, although I was interested to keep reading to see what happened. Wasn't one of my favourites and I probably won't read anymore of the trilogy, however I am glad that I read it.
