The Heir by Claudia Klein

4.0

With their country under attack, Kat and Lilly are ordered to flee. Kat being the heir to the throne, her father wants to protect her, but she feels a duty to her country.

Eric is the one responsible for the attack, as heir to the throne in another country. Thomas doesn’t agree with his brother’s decisions and has to find a way to defeat and stop him.

By fate, Lat and Thomas, who were betrothed in a diplomatic agreement, cross paths and have to work together for both of their countries. Unfortunately they are both wanted criminals and due to be hanged.

Will they be able to survive the wrath or Eric who is working with a dark side? Will Eric be able to take over the world as he has planned?

I enjoyed reading this book a lot. There’s a lot of action going on that keeps you interested. It is told from multiple points of view as well as from different countries.

It’s well thought out and written. There’s so much happening across 5 countries and everything works together. There’s nothing that just doesn’t make sense, which can happen in fantasy sometimes.

The characters and diverse and well developed.

I look forward to reading the next book when I have a chance to see what happens next.
