⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
The second installment of this series was so good & so very violent. I love the audiobook narrator, and am looking forward to seeing where all the loose ends move in book 3!

By the time Sioan reached the tower‘s top, stepping from the last stair into the bitter chill of the night, the air in her lungs burned with a fury to match the fire raging in the streets below.

I enjoyed that the plot kept giving in terms of reveals! The siblings kept learning about alliances & choices that their father had made to which few were aware. It kept the story spinning while trying to see how far their father‘s influence truly stretched, even after his death. Things got pretty heated towards the end & I was shocked on more than one occasion with the twists & turns! Full review at www.thegenreminx.com #TheGenreMinxBookReviews

This series was good, well done but not a barn burner. I did love sitting on the porch reading it immensely, though.

I just started imagining Kit Harrington as Valyn with a tan and it's working so well for me on so many levels 😁

The 1st book in this series, "The Emperor's Blades" was a little "paint-by-the-numbers" but was mostly quite satisfying. Here's hoping this 2nd book will resolve a major lack of character development for 1 main character and continue to be a fun read.
