One hell of a trilogy

September 13, 2016 by Malin 3 Comments

captive princeI’m going to review this whole trilogy in one review. As such, there is bound to be some spoilers, and if you want to go in completely cold, you may want to skip this review and just trust me that while the first book is a bit slow, and not the most engaging of reads on its own, the trilogy as a whole is mighty compelling reading, and well worth your time. At least if you like well-written fantasy, tons of political intrigue and plots that twist and turn repeatedly.

Just to make sure you’re not spoiled unless you really want to – jump here to read the rest of my review.

      Oh, I liked it a lot. I suspect I’ll like book one more on a re-read, knowing the full story.

        Yeah, I think I will, too. And now I’m craving a re-read because of a certain review . . .
