madis95 's review for:

The Runaway King by Jennifer A. Nielsen
4.0

**4.5/5**

I really enjoyed this! I think this is a really good series that combines intrigue, adventure, thrill and mystery really well. Nielsen always adds in a twist that you didn't really expect to be coming alongside one you do expect. Very clever and very well done.

I do think, however, that she sometimes allows her books to wrap up a bit too well in the end, and that takes away from it a bit for me. There is a slight cliffhanger at the end where you are set up to anticipate some struggles for the next book, but otherwise everything in this book gets a sort of "happy ending" kind of paint.

I can't wait to read the next book, though! Enjoying this series so much.
