And. It. Was. Great.
In the first book, The Demon King, written in 2009, you were drawn into a world where wizards using magical amulets pitted themselves against members of the mountain living Clan and lorded over the flatlanders living in the crowded city of Fellsmarch.
You were drawn into the world of Han, a thief and streetlord of the city, Micah Bayer, a young and conniving wizard and Princess Raisa, the young, smart and headstrong heir to the Gray Wolf Throne.
You followed them through the two wonderful and satisfying sequels; "The Exiled Queen" and "The Gray Wolf Throne".
And now you are drawn into their world for the final chapter where the Princess is now the Queen, the streetlord is now a wizard himself, and the Bayers are still working for their own gain. And where against all odds and wishes, Han and Raisa have fallen in love. A love that is young, impressionable, fraught with insecurities but strong and true.
However when their country is invaded, the politics, the treachery, the hostility among the three facets of Raisa's life keep you riveted. Who should she trust? Who are her enemies? What happened a thousand years ago? How will they survive?
Her determination to bring these factions together for the survival of her country, her determination not to surrender, Raisa proves herself worthy of being Queen.
There are so many twists and unexpected turns right up to then end.
