But first they’ll have to get rid of Asa, and only Nomi knows how. They plan to sweep across the entire kingdom, issuing in a new age of freedom for all. It is an island in the grip of revolution, and Serina–polite, submissive Serina–is its leader.īetrayal, grief, and violence have changed both sisters, and the women of Mount Ruin have their sights set on revenge beyond the confines of their island prison. But when Nomi and Malachi arrive, it is not the island of conquered, broken women that they expected. Their only hope is to find Nomi’s sister, Serina, on the prison island of Mount Ruin. Now that Asa sits on the throne, he will stop at nothing to make sure Malachi never sets foot in the palace again.

As far as I am aware this is the final book, making this a duology.īanished by Asa at the end of Grace and Fury, Nomi and Malachi find themselves powerless and headed towards their all-but-certain deaths. So, when the opportunity arose to read and review the second book Queen of Ruin I jumped at the chance to see where this story went. I enjoyed the sibling relationship – despite the fact that the sisters were so far apart for pretty much the entire book – and I ended up giving it four stars, in fact, the Fairyloot copy is still on my hardback shelf. Last year I read and reviewed Grace and Fury which was a solid YA novel from Tracey Banghart. For whatever reason, it panics me to see review copies piling up, while I can quite happily watch my owned TBR grow without thinking about the consequences at all – strange brain things. Hello Humans! It’s day fourteen of my book a day challenge as I’m writing this and I finally accepted I needed to also read arcs and loans – despite my original plan to only read my owned TBR.
