A review by patremagne
The Falcon Throne by Karen Miller

2.0

Despite enjoying myself while reading this, I got about 3/4 through and simply had no desire to pick it back up. As others have said, it's the same stuff we've seen over and over again (don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the tropey tales), but seriously: a coup resulting in the murder of a ruler, said ruler's son being spirited away to be raised by a maid, an ambitious asshole heir, war brewing, you get the picture. I guess if you're in the mood for something like it, you'll probably enjoy this, but I was not.

I will say this, however: Miller writes jousting and various action scenes very well.
