| Conquer the Kingdom by Jennifer Estep |
Conquer the Kingdom ends the Gargoyle Queen trilogy, the spin-off of the Crown of Shards trilogy. It had been a
while since I read the previous book, but the author brought me right up
to speed and I had no trouble following.
Milo, the enemy crown
prince, is on the run and Gemma, the princess turned spy, is trying to find him. Failing that, she
lures him to her kingdom—but he has a trap of his own. Gemma is forced
to truly connect with her magic and her darling gargoyles if she hopes
to defeat him.
I enjoyed this book. It was fast-paced and the
stakes were high. Gemma’s romance with Leonidas was satisfying and the
side characters held their own, even if Gemma overshadowed them in
the first person narrative.
The book had a good ending, but it
seems the author isn’t done with the world and there is one more queen
in the making. Looking forward to reading about her.
I received a free copy from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
