Resumen del Editor

A fierce gladiator queen must face off against her enemies in an epic battle in this next thrilling installment of New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Jennifer Estep’s Crown of Shards series - an action-packed adventure full of magic, murderous machinations, courtly intrigue, and pulse-pounding romance.

Queen Everleigh Blair of Bellona has survived the mass murder of the royal family, become a fearsome warrior trained by an elite gladiator troupe, and unleashed her ability to destroy magic. After surviving yet another assassination attempt orchestrated by the conniving king of Morta, Evie has had enough. It’s time to turn the tables and take the fight to her enemies.

There is no better opportunity to strike than during the Regalia Games, a time when warriors, nobles, and royals from all the kingdoms come together to compete in various sporting events. With the help of her loyal friends, Evie goes on the attack at the Regalia, but things don’t turn out the way she hopes. Soon, she is facing a terrifying new threat, and she will have to dig deep and learn even more about her growing magic if she has any chance of defeating her foes.

Because to secure her throne and ensure her kingdom’s survival, Evie must think like a true Bellonan: She must outsmart and outwit her enemies...and crush the king.

Wonderful

What a way to end the series! Without getting into to much detail, I love how this Author doesn’t take the normal way out. What a refreshing end to a story.

Fun story to listen to

Allthree books were pretty good engaging entertaining the only thing I think I felt was a little bit too much was the fact that EV always one I know she had some hardships along the way but in the end she was unconquerable and seem to be the one that excelled at everything which was good for the story but it did get to be a little bit like oh come on, LOL.

Long live the winter queen.

Amazing.! I loved every second of this book. The story was perfectly crafted and narrated. I loved Evie’s cunning, tenacity, strength and her compassion. I also enjoyed the action and there is lots of it. There is not a dull moment in this book. The cast of characters are all great; Even the villains. This book was well worth the credit and I strong recommend it.

Great book

This book delivered on the title that it displays, it has good intrigue and drama, great sword fights the listener won’t be disappointed in this story, well worth the credit.

Seriously enjoyable!

This is the third book in the series and it does not disappoint.

I have loved this series from book one. In fact, Jennifer Estep is easily one of my favorite authors. She creates a world that is rich and vibrant and so complete that you never doubt its authenticity. Everleigh is a wonderful main character (and queen.) She is in constant danger, a little more so in this book than others, and she just keeps being impressive.

The Morton king is quite the retched fellow and he makes quite a few attempts on Everleigh's life. There were a couple of times where it made no sense for Queen Everleigh to be alone to fight off the bad guys but whatevs, it made for a good listen.

The narrator epitomizes why audiobooks are so great. She performed as more actor than narrator. This was a seriously enjoyable third book!

Sooo good

I truly enjoyed these books. I hope there will be another one. Love the story line. How strong of a queen she becomes.

Really Good But Not Excellent

This book was really really good but not excellent. Definitely buy it and listen to it. Great story. Great plot. My only criticism is that the female lead character is already enough of a female lead. She is great. The author did not need to shove elaborate descriptions of outfits and of the character’s love of sangria down our throats the entire time. But other than that, listen to it, you’ll love it.

I enjoy this series

I have listened to the 3 books in this series and enjoyed all of them. I think the narrator does an excellent job she is definetly the voice of Evie.

King, Queens, Dukes, and Vilins, oh my.

Jennifer Estep continues to intrigue me with this series. So many interesting twists, plots, intrigue, and really a hard audible to put down.
You must start with book one, "Kill The Queen " in the series to really follow and enjoy the whole complex plot of the series.
Interestingly enough the last two chapters do bring closure. Still there is plenty of room and plot left for at the minimum one more book.
Lauren Fortgang again does a superb job of in narrating this series.

Superb

I don’t know if this is the end of a trilogy, or just the end of an arc of the series (there were a few loose ends that the author could follow), but Crush the King was a fantastic wrap up to all the main story lines. I absolutely loved it! Do not miss these books.
