Character 3.5| Setting 3.5| Plot 3| Art 5| Enjoy-ability 5
Rating 3.9
I enjoyed this volume a lot more than the first two. It still had it's good moments of making me laugh at some absurdity, but I liked that we saw some revenge plots, political machinations.
I enjoyed the Henry/Richard moments as well as Edward's scheming. All the scheming every person in this series is a political schemer.

The drama of this series is so good. Also I appreciate the recap pages in the beginning of each volume, it helps make the story a bit less confusing.

¡Wuola! GRITANDO ME ENCUENTRO CON ESTE NUEVO TOMO DE VERDAD.
Conforme vas leyendo este tomo, la oscuridad que alberga tanto en la trama como en el corazón del propio Richard, empiezan a tornarse luz. Por otro lado, tenemos a su hermano, Edward, quien caes en las redes del amor que parece abocar a la guerra.
Como he amado a Richard y a Henry en este tomo, de verdad, el corazón totalmente calentito.
Los dibubos son sublimes y la escenificacion exquisita.

~3.5-4/5
I don’t know if it’s just me or if Kanno has finally reached a flow with this series, but this volume was really good for me.
Elizabeth has brought her plans of revenge on King Edward to fruition, and is made Queen. Richard is the only one who has real doubts about it, though Warwick feels betrayed. In the other house, Margaret has gone insane, and is using her son Edward to enact revenge on Henry.
The best point in this series for me, though, is Richard and Henry’s relationship. I really feel for them, and think they could have a real friendship or romance, if their lives were different. They get to spend some real time together in this volume, and it’s a sweet reprieve for both of them. I want more of that, honestly.
Aside from that, things are getting dark fast. Not a surprise, but still. And Kanno has a beautiful art style for this series; the expressions, dark and hopeful, are done extremely well. They’re gorgeous.
This volume has me hooked, and I’m excited for the next one.
