Book Review: The Queen of Attolia, by Megan Whalen Turner
think this is going to be one of those series where I’m really glad that the other books are already available. (Though when I get done with the third book in the series I’m probably going to be miserable waiting for the next book.) The protagonists, setting and story continue to be intriguing, and the emotions and reactions of the characters to what happens in the novel are emotionally accurate and extremely intense.
In this sequel to The Thief, Eugenides has been engaging in a little espionage in the kingdom of Attolia. The Queen of Attolia is in no way happy about this since Eugenides previous adventure caused her to lose face in front of her barons. Since the Queen is in a very precarious position, she really wants to get her hands on Eugenides for the purpose of revenge. She gets her revenge, but she also gets a war. (The Queen of Eddis was not happy about what had happened to Eugenides, who is her cousin.)
Turner goes into some dark territory in this book.
