The Sorcerer Royal series is such a delight. It's so funny and witty and charming and heartwarming and I actually can't say enough good things about these books. The True Queen is all of these things, but it's also queer, and that made me all the more pleased. I felt that at times the pacing did flag, but it wasn't ever enough to detract from my enjoyment of the rest of the book. Also, I loved seeing Zacharias and Prunella married, even as they exist mostly on the periphery of this book. I was just so happy reading this, my cheeks hurt from smiling.
