The King of Attolia (2006) Megan Whalen Turner

The sequel to The Queen of Attolia and The Thief, we see Gen this time from the outside–from the view of a guard who doesn’t like–but yet must work with–Gen.

As with previous books, there is a great deal of intrigue, and we’re a step removed from it, seeing only what a guard would see. We also see Gen from the eyes of someone who doesn’t know him, like him, or respect him.

The result is lovely. And fabulous. And wonderful.

If you have not read The Thief, you must start there.

Immediately.
Rating: 9/10
