A review by kreela
A Kingdom of Gods and Ruin by Caroline Peckham
3.0
[SPOILERS ahead]
⁃ Prequel
⁃ M/F series
⁃ Heartbreaking ending.
⁃ WTF backstabbing!
⁃ Sister swap idea
Triggers:
⁃ Collaring
⁃ Enslavement
⁃ Violence
I love a good sister swap novel. Kyra, a powerful healer, noticed that her sister caught the eye of the cruel king, and she was determined to catch his attention with her own seduction powers, but it failed. In desperation as they left the castle, Kyra made a deal with the trickster god, which seemed to save them at first.
But careful what you wish for. Kyra’s attempt to save her sister became an assassination attempt, and my respect for her dived into a puddle of contempt. Healers by nature have traditionally been depicted as selfless, brave, and devoted to life. I was hoping for a moral hero and instead watched her knife someone until blood coated the walls. I was disgusted.
Her sacrifice left her captive to the king’s sorceror, and she became collared and caged in gold.
