Gripping novel
Katsa can kill just about anyone with ease. And her uncle the king thinks he can get away with anything with her at his side. If she'll stay that way...
This book is very exciting and entertaining and I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's also nice to see a childfree-by-choice heroine once an a while.

An Amazing Book!
This book is incredible! It's a book for everything and everyone! It's full of so many rare subjects that startle and mesmerize you with magnificent entrancement. You are not going to be able to put this book down. And when you finish it, you will sigh, stroke the cover, and pray to god there will be another!
