- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes

Triplet princesses who are trained from birth to marry into other royal families and take over so their mother, the Empress, can rule all of them.
That sounds incredibly interesting and it was for the most part, but I wasn't really wowed by the book. It was a fine read and if you like court fantasies then this is probably a book you would like. I'm interested enough to continue the series but I don't know, I was kind of underwhelmed.
