Traitors of the Black Crown by Cate Pearce
4.0
This was a fantastic book, I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did!
The writing is beautiful and the world building is so well done, the history and politics of the land is detailed but not overly done with too much exposition, it all fits within the pace of the story.
I wondered initially how the story would unfold, with one of the main characters, Raena Schinen who is a woman disguised as a male knight, but I was delighted with the development of her character and her relationship with Duchess Avenna. The characters are multi-layered and it was so interesting to learn more about them and their motivations and history as the story went on.
I was even happier to reach the end and discovered there will be a sequel, which is fantastic as I need more of this story!
