The Poisoner's Enemy by Jeff Wheeler

3.0

This is a prequel series for the author's Kingfountain series. Unfortunately, I really struggled with it. A lot of the story was disconnected and disjointed for me and felt choppy. It attempts to give some more in-depth background history to Owen's story and Trynne's story from the main series, but it wasn't cohesive and I struggled to follow it. There weren't a lot of explanations about some things (why is The Mad King mad and the ties between certain characters in the main series and this one). There are two more books in this prequel series, but I think it will be a while before I tackle them because this one was so hard for me to get into and follow and connect with.

Content: Clean writing, no language, though some war situations.
