Great look at Padme's life as a Queen. An enjoyable, alive, and compelling read.

I didn’t enjoy this as much as Queen’s Shadow, but I think that’s mainly because the setting was less interesting to me.

I re-watched The Phantom Menace (my least favourite of the prequel trilogy!) to put the story in context and that was a good decision. It helped things fall into place. I liked learning the backstories for each handmaiden.

“My hands are yours and they always have been” UGHHHAHSUIWUI. I half listened to this on audio and half as a physical book and let me just say I love listening to star war books on audio because of all the music and sound effects, it’s like you are watching another movie. But let me just say the chapter with Sache and the droids was brutal. Anyways Queen's Peril follows Captain Panaka scouting Padme Amidala’s handmaidens and then Padme during her first year as queen of Naboo. This book also confirms that Padme is Bisexuel!!!
