Archon's Queen by Matthew S. Cox

5.0

And Matthew Cox does it again!

Wow this book is such a revelation!

I'm a big fan of the first book, Prophet of the Badlands, so because of that, I had high expectations for this book. I'm happy to report though, that my expectations were surpassed!

Whoo.. Okay.. So I think I should begin with the review...


This book had a really slow start for my taste. It detailed the sufferings of our main character, Anna. She was in a perpetual state of doom and gloom in the first part of this book. She has powers, but she doesn't use them for a reason. She's terrified. Completely terrified of what she can do and what it did to someone she knows. She has friends, sure, but she's all closed off about her past that they don't even know half of it.

It was certainly a hard life for her...

Until she snaps.

All I can say about that "snap" is that she's definitely one of a kind. She's... ELECTRIC! Gosh! I can't even begin describing what she could do to you! It's badass!

She goes through so many complications after that, but she continues on being the poweful self that she trul is. Honestly, that's way better than the gloom and doom. Without so many friends, she finds an ally on a very unusual doctor. In a way, I'm glad because she found a person who will take care of her in times of great need.

This book is so full of twists that I almost fell of my chair with the ending. I don't want to give out spoilers, but I just have to say this: Be careful with who you trust. That's all.


Action, adventure and mystery packed! This book beats the odds! Well, Anna did! Such a fighter! You'll love her!
