Powerful as always
I adore the HMRC Series and was super excited to get a short and sweet backstory read after the massive twist at the end of The Shadow Cabinet. As usual the book explores the power and the place - and of course the means of escape - of women in a world dominated by (powerhungry) men. Even though it is so short, we get a lot of insight on a the witches feelings, realtionships and ambitions.
Es hätte oft gerne etwas mehr sein können, als an anderen Stellen weniger. Solides Buch und nettes Background wisse, das mehr aber auch nicht. Ich hatte mir mehr Queen B erhofft.

more like a 3,5 there were a lot of things I honestly didn’t quite like (the implied SA at the end of one of the chapters or the weird witchhunter monologue ish chapters but maybe that’s just me). One thing I can trust Dawson with are queer characters and their portrayal!! loved every second of it. She has a way of making you want more of a story and that’s enough of a reason for me to keep reading. Can’t wait for the third book of HMRC
A very witchy and feminist retelling of Anne Boleyn.
After adoring Her Majesty's Royal Coven, I knew I was going to read this prequel novella as well. I listened to the audiobook again which is once more beautifully narrated by Nicola Coughlan. Queen B is a wonderful story, sweet and serious, about the view of women (witches) back in the 16th century with a queer cast of characters, with love and friendship, loss and loyalty, told on two different time levels (before and after Anne Boleyn's death). I highly recommend it, especially if you liked the main trilogy. This one can be read separately as a standalone and has a satisfying conclusion.
