The King Slayer by Virginia Boecker
3.0
3.5 stars
I'm torn about how I feel about this book. I remember loving the first one; it was exciting and thrilling, a fantasy adventure that was completely my taste.
So naturally, I was extremely excited to delve into the sequel, the end of this two-part series. It took me a while to get into the book, and once I did, I was disappointed to find that I was quite bored at times. I found myself confused with the plot, and frustrated at the characters. Towards the end, I just felt that it kept going on, and was never going to end.
Then again, it wasn't all negative. There was action and drama in each chapter, and gripping suspense where I was itching to know what happens next. Although I'm not particularly fond of the protagonist, I'm in love with the supporting characters (especially Schuyler).
All the same, this wasn't a book that I particularly enjoyed reading. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to read the accompanying novella!
