Review of Lethal Kings

· November 2024

Althea has reigned as a mortal queen for a year. Now she has one more year left to solve the mystery of the mortal queens and save herself and her fellow queen, Eliza, her brother’s true love. But can Althea protect Eliza from making the same mistakes that she herself has made? Or will Eliza fall prey to the titular Lethal Kings? Victoria McCombs continues to craft a complicated game of characters playing across The Fae Dynasty series. Storylines introduced in Mortal Queens along with new protagonists and plots are twisted together, creating a complex array of riddles for heroines and readers before Lethal Kings concludes in a checkmate.

Best for: Teen and young adult fans who enjoy fae tales and political intrigue.

Discern: Mildly described violence, some emotional abuse and acts of overt deception, and some mentioned kisses within a chaste relationship.
