The Empire Saga, Book 2

De: M. Dalto

Narrado por: Michelle H. Lee

An Empress ripped back to the life she left behind. A Prince desperate to save his people.

One child lost within another realm, the other dependent on their constant protection.

Betrayed by those closest to her, Empress Alexstrayna must figure out a way to get it all back - her throne, her people, her son. Fulfilling a 2,000-old prophecy, Reylor, the banished Lord Steward, has stripped Alex of her rightful rule and set in motion a chain of events even he, himself, does not fully understand. Determined to strip his brother of happiness by any means possible, his actions send Alex and Treyan back to Boston and away from the Empire they called home.

Blinded by vengeance with hate running thick within her veins, the Empress must consider the ramifications of their return, for better or for worse. But when an unexpected visitor offers help assist with their attempts, Alex and Treyan need to determine how best to reclaim their Empire without more lives lost before whatever time they have left runs out.

It’s time to return to the Empire. Are you prepared to join the battle?

Loved it!

This was a great book with interesting plot lines and some stomach churning climax toward the end. I never read the first book but I feel like the story itself stood on its own. Perhaps if I wanted to understand the deeper emotional connection between Alex and Treyan, I might read the first one. Most of the characters were three-dimensional except Crystal. I feel like the writer/narrator wanted the readers to hate Crystal from the start and they did a good job on that. I hated her as soon as I heard her voice. The narrator did excellent job with this book. She was full of emotion when she needed it to be and made me tear up toward the end. I can’t wait for the next book!
