My Review

Four Dead Queens is one of the books that I keep seeing pop up all over the internet. It is hard to miss it; unless you are living off the grid or under a rock. Thus, I really wanted to get me hands on a copy to check out this book for myself.

The concept for this book is intriguing. It has a lot of potential. In fact, it could have been really magical but there were some weak points in my eyes. Although, this does not mean that you should not try readin this book for yourself.

There are four queens: Iris of Archia, Corra of Eonia, Stessa of Ludia and Marguerite of Toria. Than you have Keralie, a thief. She finds herself in a pawn in a dangerous game. While, I did like this book; here were things that I found lacking: the back story of the characters. Yes, the reader becomes very familiar with Keralie but I hardly knew much about the four queens.

Additionally, the world that this story took place; there was not a lot of details provided about this world. It seemed like an intriguing world and I wanted to know more about it. Lastly, I felt there was really no place or need for any romance.
