The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air #2)

The Wicked King was an amazing sequel to Cruel Prince, an intriguing YA fantasy that revolved around trying to keep her control over Cardan and fighting the trouble brewing in court. The story was about deceit, mind games, trust, betrayal, court politics, game of power, secrets, cruelty, and love. Most of the chapters ended with quote worthy lines. Plot was more tense, dark and filled with mind games and politics. First half of the book was a bit steady paced with all political things, managing meeting, ravels and Court of Shadows with attack that kept things spiced up but as Taryn’s wedding neared things became exciting and the second part of the book was just brilliant with so many twists and turns. Characters were as interesting and complex as first book. There was a good development in Jude and Cardan. I enjoyed reading more about Cardan and also Jude’s parents. Most of the characters were unlikable and I didn’t trust any of them which made plot tense and tight. The world was great. I enjoyed exploring the undersea and knowing more about how the power of High King actually works and what Cardan can do with it. There was some progress in romance. Me and @readingtonic2020 both agree that it can’t be love if they don’t trust each other fully but we are curious how it’s going to develope. It’s not normal kind we see in other books. Overall, Wicked King was brilliant, fascinating, captivating and wicked YA fantasy filled with bloody politics and amazing twist and turns. I highly recommend this book if you like, Royal politics and political intrigue power game complex characters and plot cruel and twisted world enemies-to-lovers arc Blood-thirsty YA fantasy

It's amazing. Oh Cardan, my boy. Kiss me. Kiss me until I'm sick of it. He says THAT

Book Title: The Wicked King Author: Holly Black Format: Paperback Book Title: The book title is absolutely appropriate to the story. Book Cover: The cover is symbolic and understood when you read the story. My review: Book 2 in the series and it's already getting so intense! When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complicated feelings for Cardan to maintain control as a mortal in a Faerie world. Ah! I am so shook, I don't even know where to start! I feel so much for Jude and as the book progressed I think I've fallen in love with her all the more. The strength and the endurance she's developed for herself always posing a formidable front is astounding and it makes you forget that she's human! This one particular fight scene which takes place just a day prior to her twin sister's wedding and the after effects it had on Jude literally reminded me of her being a human in the world of fae! I still maintain that I am absolutely disappointed with her older sister Vivi and her twin Taryn. There is still so much they could do for her! Locke is a great antagonist and his character actually makes me wanna whack him on his head! The s***** tension between Jude and Cardan is off the charts epic and my god, I could feel the scent wafting off the pages. That end twist! OMG, I definitely did not see it coming! It was so HOT to see Cardan take charge! That d***** that he used was mind blowing even though it pissed me a little on behalf of Jude! As well as the time Jude had to spend in the undersea - *shudders*. Overall, book 2 was spectacular with all the lies, deceit, vio****e, twists and off the charts chemistry! Final Verdict Title: 4/5 Cover: 4/5 Plot:4.25/5 Characters:4.25/5 Language and Vocabulary: 4/5 Final overall rating:4.25 /5
