After coming across a Kickstarter campaign for Kingdom of Curses and Shadows Collector Edition Omnibus I decided to check out the books in the series. I was pleased to find The Cup and the Prince available at my public library and quickly borrowed it.
This was a change of pace from what I have been reading lately. I found the plot line similar to other books where a female lead needs to get through multiple challenges, in this case the Royal Games. I remained engaged throughout. The dynamic between the characters was entertaining and intriguing. I definitely felt like the end of the book came too quickly, but was delighted to find a cliffhanger ending to be continued in the next book. I'm keen to learn more about these characters, especially the Griffin, Larzen and Kiran - royal brothers with a clearly dysfunctional relationship.
