The Wicked King

The Folk of the Air, Book 2

De: Holly Black

Narrado por: Caitlin Kelly

The enchanting and bloodthirsty sequel to the New York Times best-selling novel The Cruel Prince.

You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring. The first lesson is to make yourself strong.

After the jaw-dropping revelation that Oak is the heir to Faerie, Jude must keep her younger brother safe. To do so, she has bound the wicked King Cardan to her and made herself the power behind the throne. Navigating the constantly shifting political alliances of Faerie would be difficult enough if Cardan were easy to control. But he does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her even as his fascination with her remains undiminished.

When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complicated feelings for Cardan to maintain control as a mortal in a Faerie world.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A stunning and compelling sequel." (SLJ, starred review)

"The Wicked King has satisfying twists and turns, sizzling passions, brutal violence, spies and revels of all sorts - no one brings the intricate courtly politics of Faerie to life quite as well, or with as much intelligence, as Holly Black." (Shelf Awareness, starred review)

"A heady blend of courtly double-crossing, Faerie lore, and toxic attraction swirls together in the sequel to THE CRUEL PRINCE.... Black's writing is both contemporary and classic; her world is, at this point, intensely well-realized, so that some plot twists seem almost inevitable." (Kirkus, starred review)

awesome

the only thing disappointing was that it ended too quickly. I can't believe Cardin! having to wait for the next book is torture.

Tricksters

I truly hope that you don’t take a year to publish the next book in the series. I knew in my mind that he would do something but I didn’t think he would choose exile.

What!?!?

That ending 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The best books are the ones that get your emotions pumping and this girl Holly Black knows exactly how to do that. Can't wait for next book in this series 😍

Great story

This book was better than the first one although I know this book is more from Judes POV I want more of Carden

Soooooo Good!!!!

Excellent

I loved the intrigue! I loved the characters and the story. I can't wait to listen to the next book in the series. The narration was excellent also.

Worth It

This book was SO good. If you didn’t enjoy the cruel prince you should still try to read this. That ENDING!
Can’t wait till the next book in 2020.

Awesome

AMAZING!

I love this series! But readers be warned! It ends on a horrible cliff hanger! The author does a great job telling the story and keeping the reader on the edge of their seat.
