About the book

Her magic feeds on lies.
His magic could destroy her.

Mira Kyler runs the court of Virdei from the shadows. Ever since she helped her half-brother Luc cheat his way into the role of Virdei's leader, she's used her lie-powered magic to collect secrets from members of court, then used them as blackmail to keep her brother in power.

Kaidren Vale has magic of his own-magic that can detect the precise nature of someone else's power with a single touch. Kaidren is after the throne, and Mira knows it could be his for the taking if he so much as brushes against her and discovers Mira has been manipulating the court with her power for years.

As Kaidren and Luc compete for the throne in The Trials-three deadly challenges-Mira realizes, even as she fights to keep her brother in power, that no matter who wins, she'll be stuck serving someone else. She's done hiding in the shadows. She wants the throne for herself.

To get it, she'll have to betray both her own brother and Kaidren-but the fiercer the competition gets, the more Mira realizes that the one boy who could destroy everything is the one boy she might not be able to resist.

    Ich liebe einfach, wie Burton schreibt und wie sie Atmosphäre schafft. Die Welt ist in gesellschaftlicher Hinsicht super ausgearbeitet, politisch und magisch ist noch Luft nach oben. Die Protagonistin macht eine interessante Entwicklung durch, setzt sich hohe Ziele und versucht, diese auf allen möglichen Wegen zu erreichen. Aber vor allem gefiel mir ihr Zusammenspiel mit dem Gegenspieler, da herrscht eine tolle Dynamik. Manche Aspekte fand ich trotzdem unglaubwürdig, wie z.B. nie jemand spekuliert oder gar herausfinden will, wer die Shadow Queen ist. Das Trial um "König" zu werden, fand ich auch eher seitenfüllend als wirklich relevant, aber es hat Spaß gemacht. Es gibt einen kleinen Cliffhanger und ich freu mich auf Band 2.
