A review by booksandlemonsquash
The Rogue Queen by Emily R. King
3.0
I received this book from the publisher via Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
I took a while to get back into this detailed and gorgeous world, but once I was there I loved how it all played out. The war between the three sides was well done - I especially liked what happens between the rebels and Ashwin’s side.
I also loved getting to see more of the competitors from the second tournament and some of their part of the world.
There’s a couple of things that made me knock this down from four stars to 3.5 - firstly the POV changes worked well previously, but I struggled to keep up a little here. And second, the action capitulates a little quickly for my taste. There’s lots of build up and it suddenly seemed to be over.
Having said that, I loved how it ended and what it implies for the fourth and final book.
