Publisher's Summary

Goodreads Best Fantasy YA 2020. 

The intoxicating and bloodthirsty finale to the New York Times best-selling The Cruel Prince, nominated for the Cilip Carnegie Medal 2019, and New York Times best seller The Wicked King.

After being pronounced Queen of Faerie and then abruptly exiled by the Wicked King Cardan, Jude finds herself unmoored, the queen of nothing. She spends her time with Vivi and Oak, watching reality television, and doing odd jobs, including squaring up to a cannibalistic faerie.

When her twin sister, Taryn, shows up asking a favour, Jude jumps at the chance to return to the Faerie world, even if it means facing Cardan, whom she loves despite his betrayal. When a dark curse is unveiled, Jude must become the first mortal Queen of Faerie and break the curse or risk upsetting the balance of the whole Faerie world.

Enjoyable listen

Great series and this novel didn't disappoint. The main character is a bit too reflective and it becomes repeataive and the story is a bit "I said" "she said" in a very mechanical automatic narrative but it was good overall

best book of the series

I was unimpressed by the 2nd book, to the point that i didn't think i should bother listening to this one, but glad I did as I found this story so much more engaging and satisfying. great narrator, great happily ever after.

Very enjoyable fantasy fairie book.

Great detail, characters stayed true to themselves. Very entertaining and I really enjoyed listening. Took me a while to listen to the narrator as I had read the first two books as hardcopy and had the names and voices in my imagination already.

Couldn’t Stop listening

finished QoN and I’m so freaking glad I don’t have to squint my eyes while scrolling my newsfeed in case I see a spoiler 😂
I have never stretched out a book this long in my life before like this!!!!
Firstly, I listen to the book on audible, and does anyone else agree that the narrator is freaking amazing!!!!! I tried to read the actual book halfway through and missed hearing the way she read it so had to switch back to audible.
Secondly, I felt so complete by the end. Yes, there are a few loose ends I would love to know more about, but I actually felt that the ending left me feeling satisfied. This whole darn book felt satisfying from start to finish.
Last, but not least, I cannot say enough how incredibly talented Holly Black is, the way she writes, the way she makes you feel like you are a part of her world she has created and the character development throughout the series is astronomical. I’m in love with this series and have literally forced everyone in my life to read these books.

Loved the entire series!

So glad I came across this series. The narrator was exceptional and so was the storyline. Such a great read! Has this already been made into a movie? If not, needs to be done so asap!

Awesome listen....but

My only problem is I wish someone told the author she repeats things too much like in the beginning of the book she repeats over and over again how stupid the protagonist is feeling about how things ended in the last book and it really took me out of story a few times, but I'm glad I kept listening because all in all it was a great series. x
