Review
"Holly is the Faerie Queen."
-- "Victoria Aveyard, #1 bestselling author of The Red Queen series""It's an enjoyable read with well-developed characters and genuine chills."
-- "Publishers Weekly"* [S]pellbinding.... Breathtaking set pieces, fully developed supporting characters, and a beguiling, tough-as-nails heroine enhance an intricate, intelligent plot that crescendos to a jaw-dropping third-act twist.-- "Publishers Weekly, starred review"
* Another fantastic, deeply engaging, and all-consuming work from Black that belongs on all YA shelves.-- "School Library Journal, starred review"
* Jude, who struggles with a world she both loves and hates and would rather be powerful and safe than good, is a compelling narrator. Whatever a reader is looking for--heart-in-throat action, deadly romance, double-crossing, moral complexity--this is one heck of a ride.-- "Booklist, starred review"
*[A] dangerous journey filled with mystery, betrayal, intrigue, and romance.... Larger-than-life action in a kingdom packed with self-centered, evil, and manipulating characters also doles out real life issues.-- "VOYA, starred review "
*A compelling final piece in a powerful set.-- "Booklist, 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 "
*A rare second volume that surpasses the first, with, happily, more intrigue and passion still to come.-- "Booklist, starred review " --This text refers to the audioCD edition.

The art is amazing 🤩 The illustrations were pretty. The Alice in Wonderland book from the Cruel Prince is shown in this 😉
For those wondering about the price of this compared to the original trilogy, think of it as a graphic novel. Illustrated books cost more than normal novels.

The accompanying illustrations are beautiful and it was really nice to see the words depicted on the pages. Illustrator Rovina Ca did such an amazing job of capturing his likeness and personality in her work. Rovina’s art style was a perfect choice for this book, it really encapsulates the dark side of Cardan and his group bringing the stories to life.
Getting to see parts of the stories already written throughout The Folk of the Air from Cardan’s perspective adds so much more depth to the overarching plot lines. The main series is predominantly about Jude so I think a book from Cardan’s perspective was definitely necessary.
Although not pivotal to the main plot and story it gives it an edge that it didn’t have before reading this. Seeing all the background details to events that took place gives the reader such a better understanding almost like you’re in the mind of the character and nothing beats that! Getting to the end of this book feels like completing a journey with Cardan and I think it is a journey all fans of The Cruel Prince should embark on.

You might beg to differ.
So long as you’re begging, he doesn’t mind a bit.”
I had a stack of books I planned / hoped to read this month, and because I completely forgot about pre-ordering this book it was not on my list.
Did I ditch my entire tbr the moment it arrived? Yes, yes I did!
Holly has a way of captivating me completely. I zoned out and devoured this in one quick sitting.
I loved the flow and the direction the story went in. It was nice to get an insight into Cardan, not just as he is now but as he was growing up.
I didn’t think it was possible to fall even more in love with Cardan, but alas, it has happened.
I loved everything - and the illustrations added an extra touch of magic to this beautiful story.
I’m so glad I own a copy of this book, it will definitely be one I reread often.
“You didn’t hear the story I told,” he goes on. “A shame. It featured a handsome boy with a heart of stone and a natural aptitude for villainy. Everything you could like.”
Reread: April 1st
"A heart of stone can still be broken."
I decided to give the audio a try after a recommendation and I'm so glad I did. I absolutely love how it was read, it added a little something extra to something I was already familiar with, and I love that.


As ilustrações são simplesmente excelentes! Combinaram muito bem com a história, com o estilo da trilogia e com o próprio Cardan! Acho que foi uma das melhores compras que já fiz e agora estou louca para reler a série toda e finalizar com ele outra vez!
