This was a FANTASTIC conclusion to the trilogy. The Queen of Nothing wraps up all the threads from the trilogy in a...mostly neat box. Jude was the last to finish her character arc, but it is a satisfying and deserved conclusion for the High Queen of Elfhame. Cardan's character growth was excellent and makes him truly deserving of Jude. This is the truest enemies to lovers I have ever read. I would consider making a faerie bargain just to erase my memories of this series so I could read it all over again.

Do yourself a favor and read the incredibly short Cardan's Letters to Jude in Exile after this. It is short and sweet, but demonstrates Cardan's sincerity. I love Jude and Cardan so much!

The best out of the series and it's only 3 stars

Why would i still dmash Cardan even if he was turned into a serpent? Sad but im happy the royalty is different

And the ending is chefs kiss. Hate to say it but i probably wont read stolen air and the prisoners throne  :(
