The Gilded Crown by Marianne Gordon

4.0

A very interesting slightly Nordic retelling? You’ll notice throughout the little nuances here and there. It was rather intriguing as I kept on pushing on, I had a hard time connecting with the characters from the start but as we progressed it didn’t feel as forced! Hellevir, our main girl, is cursed and blessed with a gift that pretty much everyone would love to have for themselves. And that’s exactly her problem. It was a unique political fantasy that focused on its world building and society. It was fast paced and filled with questions of morality, along with queer representation!

Thank you to NetGalley and the author!
