YA
Queen Elisa (The Girl of Fire and Thorns; The Crown of Embers) is on the run, her kingdom both overtaken by a usurper and threatened by invasion from the Invierne. Political goals align, for the moment, with her personal mission to rescue love interest Hector; doing so brings her deep into Invierne territory. Carson delivers a satisfying wrap-up to the trilogy's complex web of plot lines.
