I wish I had saved it for my 2021 challenge because it fit a lot of the prompts. I really enjoyed the characters and the world building, and I'll definitely be picking up book 2. I did find it a bit more "adult" than other YA novels, not the entire thing but a few lines every few chapters were far from PG. Interesting world that seems old but is really far future Earth. Mysterious magic that isn't fully explained yet. Powerful teenaged Queen but refreshingly not beautiful and good at everything. Lots of gruff soldiers with hearts of gold. Super evil bad guys and girls. Mysterious dashing bad guy or is he a good guy? Not perfect but I'm in for book 2. The Queen of the tearing I really loved this book. It was a great start to high fantsey series. The only reason I gave it four stars was the world building. It was a little week and not as developed at points but overall I really loved it. I was really confused when the world was actually occurred but by the end i figured it out. It has a cool concept and I really loved how each chapter has a quote from history books. I also love the focus on books and reading. I am a life long reader and that just makes me smile. I really did like how the book switched perspectives as well. I almost wish it was done more often in he book. I know the story is kelsea but I would liked to see POV from more characters. I like how magic was introduced and I hope we see more of it. I really love kelsea as a character and I am excited to learn more about her path in future books. This book is both a great mix of magic and distopian novels. I rec you check it out. I am exited for the next book to see where it goes. here is my video review of it http://youtu.be/7JhI_k4wUAM sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

El trono la espera, sus enemigos también. Kelsea Glynn es la única heredera del trono del Tearling. Tras la muerte de su madre, la princesa fue criada por dos fieles sirvientes en una cabaña oculta en los bosques. Durante casi dos décadas, el tío de Kelsea ha ejercido la regencia, pero no es más que el títere corrupto de la Reina Roja, la taimada y despótica hechicera que ostenta el poder en el feudo colindante de Mortmesne. El día que Kelsea cumple diecinueve años, los maltrechos restos de la guardia de la reina acuden para sacar a la joven de la clandestinidad y escoltarla hasta la capital. Así empieza el turbulento viaje de Kelsea al corazón del Tearling para reclamar su trono, ganar la lealtad del pueblo y rescatar su reino de la corrupción y de la magia oscura. Armada con una voluntad de acero, la joven se someterá a una auténtica prueba de fuego que puede convertirla en leyenda... o destruirla. Intriga, romance y peligrosas batallas en este espectacular debut. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Fantastic world building, such compelling characters that stay with you long after you've finished reading. Well-written and solid plotting (of both kinds!).
Kelsea is a true hero.
However, I would not suggest this is a YA book. There is gore, violence, and brutality (and plenty of swearing). Some tough stuff to read through but never gratuitous. ( )
