I liked them together too much to see Cal becoming king separate the two of them.Ĭlassroom application: As with the rest of the series, there is violence in the novel, though mostly of the fantastical kind, so the book is appropriate for upper middle school and high school students. I was also relieved that Mare and Cal's relationship could be repaired.
I especially liked getting to know Evangeline better as she was very much an enemy earlier in the series and becomes an ally for Mare in this book. While the introduction of multiple narrators in the previous book had been a bit off-putting at first, I loved hearing the the trio of powerful female voices in this book. Maven and Cal each had a single section at the end. Narration alternated primarily between Mare, Evangeline who is now betrothed to Cal, and Inge, Maven’s water nymph bride. I'm happy to report that the fourth and final book continued to come back with a vengeance. I loved the third book in the series, King's Cage, as well as the first book, Red Queen, but the second book, Glass Sword, dragged for me. Why I liked it: I've been working my way through a bunch of series and just wrapped up the Red Queen series by reading War Storm(though there is also a short story collection that I haven't read yet plus a novella focused on Cal's mother). for all will be tested, but not all will survive.
In the epic conclusion to Victoria Aveyard’s stunning series, Mare must embrace her fate and summon all her power. Will victory be enough to topple the Silver kingdoms? Or will the little lightning girl be forever silenced? War is coming, and all Mare has fought for hangs in the balance.
But Maven is driven by an obsession so deep, he will stop at nothing to have Mare as his own again, even if it means demolish everything-and everyone-in his path. Cal’s powerful Silver allies, alongside Mare and the Scarlet Guard, prove a formidable force.
starting with the crown on Maven’s head.īut no battle is won alone, and before the Reds may rise as one, Mare must side with the boy who broke her heart in order to defeat the boy who almost broke her. Now determined to protect her heart-and secure freedom for Reds and newbloods like her-Mare resolves to overthrow the kingdom of Norta once and for all. Mare Barrow learned this all too well when Cal’s betrayal nearly destroyed her. The basic plot from Amazon: VICTORY COMES AT A PRICE.
