This is an incredibly intricate world and it is fascinating. It did take me a while to get through this one but i probably will listen to the next one. This contains a lot of murder and brutality just be aware.

This book was full of plot twists and turned into a pretty exciting mystery. The threads that were sown in A winter’s promise started to slowly unravel and I can’t wait to see how the rest of the series resolves. I’m not a big fan of political intrigue but the first book interested me, I also loved the writing. While I didn’t like the way Ophelia was manipulated in the first book, I got to say that in the second book she makes a strong stand and I grew to like her a lot. 
So yeah, I’m not the best with words but I liked this book and I’m definitely going to read the next :)
