This is the sequel to Three Dark Crowns. The battle for the throne has begun, and each of the three sisters plot in their own ways to be the last one standing. Katherine, once the weakest sister, is now more powerful than ever before. Arsinoe, who now knows of her secret ability, must find out how to use it to her advantage without anyone else finding out. Mirabella, the strongest sister and who everyone thinks will be crowned, faces attacks which weaken her power and threaten her life. As the queens battle for the throne, everyone on the island eagerly wait for who will be the last one standing.
I rate this book 4/5 because the plot further advanced in this book, and there were many plot twists. I also liked the level of action in this book, which kept me hooked the whole time, though it did not have the level of action the first book had. There was also lots of complexity in the characterizations, and it would help the reader develop a three dimensional understanding of the character, and see the character the same way as a real person.
I would recommend this book to ages 13+ because there are some inappropriate parts and many graphic details/violence. I would also recommend this book to people who really liked Three Dark Crowns.
