About the book

The highly anticipated second installment of the new adult fantasy saga that took BookTok by storm picks up where A Broken Blade left off…

To the kingdom, Keera is the king’s Blade, his most feared and trusted spy and assassin. But in the shadows, she works with Prince Killian and his Shadow—the dark, brooding Fae, Riven, who sets her blood on fire. Together, they plot to kill a tyrant king.

In Myrelinth, the lush, secret city of trees, Fae, Elves, and Halflings like Keera live in harmony. But Keera cannot escape her past: her crimes against her own people have followed her all the way to the Faeland. There is a traitor in their midst, and Keera is the top suspect.

Keera finds comfort in the allies that have become her family. She swore she would never open her heart again after a loss she barely survived. But she will soon find she has more to lose than she ever imagined . . .

Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas’s Throne of Glass series, A Shadow Crown is a tour-de-force high fantasy novel with stunning world building and a slow burn enemies to lovers romance. Readers seeking more LGBTQ+ and BIPOC representation in the fantasy realm will fall in love with the unforgettable cast of characters introduced in A Broken Blade, whose sagas are only beginning…

This series continues to be a good time. The story is interesting enough if a little predictable at times. The characters arent the most complex but not completely shallow. The FMC makes me a little livid because she does a lot of dumb shit because she is too good of a person which clashes sometimes with the badass assasin she is supposed to be but that's also part of her characterization so I guess it makes sense? I think my favourite part of this series is the worldbuilding but sadly that is also the smallest part of the book. Overall just solid but I'm not emotionally invested enough in any of the characters or relationships to give this more than 3,5 stars.

The second installment of the Halfling Saga picks up seamlessly from the end of A Broken Blade. This made it easy to dive back into the story
