An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller! An Instant #1 Indie Bestseller! Return to the opulent world of Elfhame, filled with intrigue, betrayal, and dangerous desires, with this second book of a captivating duology from the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black.  An imprisoned prince. A vengeful queen. And a battle that will determine the future of Elfhame.    Prince Oak is paying for his betrayal. Imprisoned in the icy north and bound to the will of a monstrous new queen, he must rely on charm and calculation to survive. With High King Cardan and High Queen Jude willing to use any means necessary to retrieve their stolen heir, Oak will have to decide whether to attempt regaining the trust of the girl he’s always loved or to remain loyal to Elfhame and hand over the means to end her reign—even if it means ending Wren, too.

   With a new war looming on the horizon and treachery lurking in every corner, neither Oak’s guile nor his wit will be enough to keep everyone he loves alive. It’s just a question of whom he will doom. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black comes the stunning blood-soaked conclusion to the Stolen Heir duology.

Fucking loved it but -1 star for mentioning Oak’s hooves in the first sentence of the book

This one was a feast for my heart! All the Jude and Cardan moments we were given? The unfolding deep dive of Oaks personality and past? Soft moments with Maddoc? I loved it all from start to finish! Something I do have to say though is that Oak and Wren felt a little too hot and cold for me in this book. All of a sudden Oaks fascination with Wren has turned into deep and senseless devotion and there wasn't really an explanation for that except that "she gets him on a deeper level". Meanwhile Wren felt a little too easily manipulated by Bogdana after it has been established that she is powerful and cunning. But all in all I am extremely sad to leave the world of Elfhame once again and I am hoping that one day, we might all return back to it!

This book was all over the place. Literally. I think there was nowhere they didn't visit at some point or other during their adventure. This felt like a really long story because of it complexity but not in a way that made it exhausting to read. I really enjoyed Oak's perspective and that about half way in Jude and Cardan joined the mess. With this family you just never know who is plotting what exactly. Oak made an excellent point once, about how in a world full of schemers and omissions, the truth can be not only armor but also a weapon...
