Queen Elisa is facing threats on multiple fronts: at home a civil war is brewing as rebel nobles dispute her claim to the throne; but to the north and east, the hostile Invierne nation threatens to invade her country, unless she gives herself up as a willing sacrifice. To make matters worse, Hector, the captain of her royal guard--and her betrothed--has been kidnapped as a hostage to ensure her compliance with the Invierno demands.
I loved this conclusion to the series every bit as much as the first two. Recommended for fans of Tamora Pierce and Robin McKinley.
