corabookworm 's review for:

The Prisoner's Throne by Holly Black
3.75
adventurous dark mysterious tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A very enjoyable read (I always love seeing more of Elfhame, especially with so many Jude and Cardan cameos) but a lot of it felt kind of like filler stuff and just sort of dragged on. Also focused more on the romance for most of the book than the super interesting political schemes happening! 

The best part about this book was Holly Black hinting at another Jude and Cardan story. I need more of them.
