Invasion of the Tearling

By: Erika Johansen



This book is book two to the Tearling trilogy. It moves quickly and you barely have time to catch your breath. I stayed up a couple of nights cause there just isn't any good place to stop and put the book down!

"Kelsea Glynn is the Queen of the Tearling. Despite her youth, she has quickly asserted herself as a fair, just and powerful ruler.

However, power is a double-edged sword, and small actions can have grave consequences. In trying to do what is right - stopping a vile trade in humankind - Kelsea has crossed the Red Queen, a ruthless monarch whose rule is bound with dark magic and the spilling of blood. The Red Queen's armies are poised to invade the Tearling, and it seems nothing can stop them.

Yet there was a time before the Crossing, and there Kelsea finds a strange and possibly dangerous ally, someone who might hold the key to the fate of the Tearling, and indeed to Kelsea's own soul. But time is running out..."

*I didn't care for some of the language and I also didn't care for all the rape talk. It's usually just inferred but there is one scene where Lily is actually raped by her husband. Some people won't have a problem with this but...yucky.
