DETAILED REVIEW OF The Kingdom of Shadows and Wolves is a wonderful book by a very intelligent and creative author. It is a blend of dark fantasy, fae politics, and a slow-burn romance where he falls first.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
This story is a slow burn, world building masterpiece - although there are 3 books, they are not separate stories like most series. It's one detailed, inspiring story split across 3 books, so you will be left with questions after reading this, BUT no cliff hanger!
The story centres around an FMC protagonist dragged up and beaten up by her ruthless uncle, who usurped her family’s throne. Then she’s forced into a political marriage with the infamous King Caelum of Cysgod, a ruler who killed his own dad in order to take the throne he now sits on.
