peculiarb 's review for:

Fallen Queen by Y.R. Shin
2.0

"Fallen Queen" by Y. R. Shin follows Reuyen who is the reincarnated treacherous queen of Rarke as she helps finish a two hundred year old conflict.

My overall impression is that it's a very average book with one glaring problem: It doesn't have a clear, overarching plot. The book starts out with Reuyen on a desperate search to find her last remaining brother who's joined the army to avenge their older brother after his death. However, once she finds her brother and enlists in the army, all she does is follow orders until they deliver her to the next big plot point, making the novel unappealing.

The book left only a small impression on me, and no appeal to continue the series.
