Servant of Earth – review

BLURB

Kenna Heron is still reeling from her lover’s betrayal and the threat of an impending war. With only her two closest–and most powerless–friends by her side, she must navigate the treacherous politics of Mistei while coming to terms with her new identity as not just Fae, but princess of her own house.

With the king dead, three candidates are vying for the right to wear the crown next. A princess who claims the throne as her birthright and two rebel princes, both of whom are depending on the support of Blood House to break the stalemate between them. Old loyalties fray as new, dangerous alliances form, and Kenna finds herself caught in a web of violence, deceit, and unexpected passion.

Kenna has the power to shape Mistei’s future… but someone’s willing to kill to make sure she never gets the chance.

‘A mix of softness and violence, beauty and death.’

That’s my Kenna!

We start where we left off and The Blood House has a new Princess.

This story is about how she navigates her new status, deals with the damage that has been done to her friends, the politics, the scheming, the backstabbing and also new allies.

Oh, Kallen, my sweet summer child! In my review of Book 1, I said he was my favourite, but it’s official now, I have a new book boyfriend! I absolutely love that Void, shadow daddy beauty!

That ending. That was one hell of a cliffy. The author really knows how to torture her readers!  I’ve already pre-ordered Warrior of the Shards so bring on December! What a fab early Christmas present that will be!

⭐ Rating: 5 out of 5
