the wicked king and the queen of nothing

“We have lived in our armor for so long, you and I. Taryn is now married to Locke, for better or for worse, and regardless of what Jude thinks on the matter.

Madoc is ready and willing to do anything to put Oak or himself on the throne, regardless of what Oak wants while living in the mortal realm with Vivi. This series, this world, these characters, have brought me so much unconditional happiness, and I truly am not ready to say goodbye, but I do think this was a very perfect ending.Īlso, a couple things before I start this actual review: 1.) I vlogged this entire reading experience (and how I wrote this review) and I hope you enjoy! 2.) This review will talk about events that happened in The Cruel Prince, The Lost Sisters, & The Wicked King, so please use caution while reading! And I will have a spoiler section for QoN later!Īfter the very heartbreaking end of The Wicked King, Jude is now exiled from Faerie and a crown that no one knows she wears. I feel like I’ve been in love with Holly Black’s fae stories my entire life and seeing this series finally close means more to me than I have words for, truly. As Jude slips deep within enemy lines she becomes ensnared in the conflict’s bloody politics.Īnd, when a dormant yet powerful curse is unleashed, panic spreads throughout the land, forcing her to choose between her ambition and her humanity…įrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black, comes the highly anticipated and jaw-dropping finale to The Folk of the Air trilogy. Jude must risk venturing back into the treacherous Faerie Court, and confront her lingering feelings for Cardan, if she wishes to save her sister.

Opportunity arrives in the form of her deceptive twin sister, Taryn, whose mortal life is in peril. She bides her time determined to reclaim everything he took from her. Now as the exiled mortal Queen of Faerie, Jude is powerless and left reeling from Cardan’s betrayal. Jude learned this lesson when she released her control over the wicked king, Cardan, in exchange for immeasurable power.

Power is much easier to acquire than it is to hold onto. He will be destruction of the crown and the ruination of the throne.
