I didn’t really connect with any of them which concerns me. That being said, my main problem with this book was the characters. For all of this to happen in only one book, I can’t imagine what will happen in six of them. There was so much that happened in this one book and I find it interesting that there are five more.

I actually ended up reading this book in one sitting because I did not want to put it down. There was plenty of action, intrigue, politics, backstabbing, and plot twists. The plot was fast paced and constantly had my attention. “Even paradise could become a prison if one had enough time to take notice of the walls.” Heir: Bred for aggression and trained to conquer, firstborn son Magnus begins to realize that the heart can be more lethal than the sword…. Sorceress: Lucia, adopted at birth into the royal family, discovers the truth about her past-and the supernatural legacy she is destined to wield. To his shock, he finds himself the leader of a people’s revolution centuries in the making.

Rebel: Jonas, enraged at injustice, lashes out against the forces of oppression that have kept his country cruelly impoverished. Princess: Raised in pampered luxury, Cleo must now embark on a rough and treacherous journey into enemy territory in search of magic long thought extinct. Who will emerge triumphant when all they know has collapsed? The only outcome that’s certain is that kingdoms will fall.

Cleo, Jonas, Lucia, and Magnus are caught in a dizzying world of treacherous betrayals, shocking murders, secret alliances, and even unforeseen love. And while hard-won peace has reigned for centuries, a deadly unrest now simmers below the surface.Īs the rulers of each kingdom grapple for power, the lives of their subjects are brutally transformed… and four key players, royals and rebels alike, find their fates forever intertwined. In the three kingdoms of Mytica, magic has long been forgotten. ∴ Falling Kingdoms (Falling Kingdoms #1) by Morgan Rhodes ∴
