Queen & Conqueror by Isabelle Olmo
5.0
Thank you so much BookSirens and Isabelle Olmo for an advanced edition of Queen & Conqueror.
This book is everything I could have wanted and more. It did take me a few chapters to get into it as it is very dense with a lot of worldbuilding and characters to keep up with. But once I got in I was HOOKED.
The series follows a series of women trying to make it in a patriarchal society. But unlike other instalments in the fantasy genre, the women actually have agency.
I would definitely compare this to Game of Thrones, with the intense political battles as well as DRAGONS. But if you are a woman you will much prefer this take on the genre. Our main characters are brave, layered, flawed and brilliant. They all in all real women.
It was such a breath of fresh air. I CANNOT WAIT to continue!
