The Hundredth Queen by Emily R. King
3.0
2.5 Stars
This book probably could have been stronger in every way if the romance had been cut out. The world building was very interesting to me, as were several of the characters. The plot had me hooked. But I felt the romance weakened a lot of the characters' motivations and most of the plot would have been the same if the two main characters weren't so bone headed stupid as to keep putting themselves into positions where they could be romantic when they knew that they'd probably be killed for doing so.
