![]() ![]() The second book was just as captivating as the first, maybe more so because it ended on an even more gut-wrenching cliffhanger. “The Wicked King” was a strong second novel, avoiding the often dreaded middle book problem: that it would be nothing but a link between books one and three. They are vicious and brutal, endlessly interesting. However, readers were captivated by the extravagance and the backstabbing in a world full of beings that cannot lie. “The Cruel Prince” had fans thrust into this world of Elfhame, full of magic, fairies and manipulation. The first two books in the series were very strong. This novel has been highly anticipated by fans of the series, but, rest assured, expectations were met. This novel wrapped up loose ends, while still surprising readers through stunning character growth all around. Thank you, Holly Black, for making “The Queen of Nothing” the perfect closer for your “Folk of the Air” trilogy. ![]()
