A review by 52weekswithbooks
Heir of Lies by Mallory McCartney

4.0

This is fast paced, action packed book. I was surprised to be pulled in from the beginning. The story is told by showing us the events as they unfold through the perspective of the four MCs: princess and queen to be Emory, her friends Brokk and Memphis, and the villain Adair.
.
I think it was a very inspired choice to start the series with the origin story for all the characters. At this point I feel very involved and very much care to know what happens next.
.
Strong points: interesting, dangerous and magical world, love triangle (quadrangle?), interesting, imperfect and complex characters, with tragic backstories, lots of action, interconnected worlds.
.
I'm so excited to also have the second book in the series, so I can jump right in from where I left off.

Thank you to the author @authormalmccartney and R&R Book Tours @shannon_rrbooktours for the gifted copy, in exchange for my honest opinion.
