OLDER FICTION
Harrison, Mette Ivie

The Rose Throne

(4) YA Magic and discrimination are tightly linked for two princesses from rival kingdoms prophesied to unite--Princess Ailsbet, who must hide her power from a vicious father, and Princess Issa, who's expected to subordinate hers to a husband's demands. The politics of this brutal fantasy world are compelling, but Harrison's style of characterization is oddly remote. The unresolved conclusion leaves room for a sequel.
