The Wicked King

Ordering this had me refreshing the "Track my order" at least twice per minute. The perfect mix of mystery, thriller, and romance. If you're a sucker for dramatics what are you doing with your life if you haven't read this series? The book came in perfect condition no creases and no bends or anything of that sort in the pages.

Love love loved this book! It had everything I wanted. Simple, easy to follow and a little romance thrown. But the book was a defect, few pages had weird paper folded as if the printer malfunctioned or something

the book is super captivating i loved every bit of it it’s condition was pretty good too maybe a scratch here and there but nothing that caught my attention and kept it

ممتاز

Took me forever to find the hard copy of this book, so glad this business posted their listing of it on here, arrived fast with no damage.

Heel mooi

Este segundo libro te engancha más a la historia y de verdad que se vuelve más interesante, no podía dejar de leerlo, y cuando lo termine quería saber que pasaba después.

After The Cruel Prince it's obvious that unexpected things will happen all the time, and even knowing I should be more careful on who to trust I clearly wasn't enough. The Wicked King begins 5 months after the events of the first book, and seeing Jude as the High King's Seneschal was at the very least, amazing! My favorite thing about this book is how Jude managed to plan everything, how she dealt with the power and control she had over Cardan. Jude Duarte did not let me down at any moment. "Power is much easier to acquire than it is to hold on to". This is one of my favorite quotes from the book, because the story itself reminded me of its importance all the time. Jude was dealing with the Living Council and trying to make them listen. If they had listened to her, the whole thing with the Undersea could have been avoided, they would have been prepared. I was so curious trying to discover who was the traitor. "I served Prince Dain. Not you." I wasn't expecting it to be The Ghost, the way he just didn't care and was one of the reasons Jude was dragged to the Undersea... After everything they went through, I was shocked! "Perhaps I cannot be glamoured, but that doesn't mean I cannot be broken." When Jude was at the sea, dealing with Nicasia and Orlagh I was so nervous. She was alone at the Undersea, facing the queen and her jealous daughter. If it wasn't enough, she also had to face Balekin. Jude spent all her energy pretending to be under their control. Seeing her pretending to see a comfortable room, the food, water... all of it just reassured how strong Jude Duarte is. She had to fight her own body just to make it to the next day. I felt as if I was trapped under the water with her. Locke and Taryn deserve each other, they are both terrible in my point of view. Taryn always choose someone else over her own sister, and Locke just cares about what and who is more interesting at the moment. The fact that he was the cause of Jude's almost death makes me want to kill him myself even more. Taryn just likes to pretend she's a nice Lady of Faerie and has zero personality. "Sweet Jude. You are my dearest punishment." I just loved to see how the things between Jude and Cardan were changing. It's very clear that they feel something. The fact that this story's not focused on romance just makes it better! It was amazing to see how this game of kings, queens and power would go, and even have a real relationship development. Not one the characters are madly in love after 2 days. I'm looking forward to see how the author will work their relationship on The Queen of Nothing. "But I am the Queen of Faerie." After Jude gave up the control she had over Cardan and accepted marrying him I was extremely happy. For a moment I really believed I knew how the book would end, and that they would take care of the Orlagh situation together. But as I mentioned before, I wasn't careful enough and was fooled. Jude killed Balekin, (thankfully) I might say, but that cost her everything. Cardan exiled her to the mortal world and that was highly unexpected to me. I am still speechless, in The Cruel Prince, Jude tricks Cardan and in The Wicked King, Cardan tricks Jude. To finish this review I want to say that this is one of my favorite books. I just couldn't stop reading until it was over! "You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring. The first lesson is to make yourself that strong."
