Book Review - The Wicked King

📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Holly Black
            It’s been five months since the events that took place at the end of The Cruel Prince where Jude learned that Oak is an heir of faery and has placed Carden on the throne till Oak is older. Jude may have Carden’s allegiance for seven more months but that doesn’t mean things will go smoothly in the land of faery. The Queen of the Undersea has her own plans and Jude is finding herself betrayed by those she thought she could trust.
            While some series and trilogies fall flat with their second book, this one does not. The Wicked King is as wonderful and entertaining as The Cruel Prince. Readers will enjoy Jude and Carden’s humorous interactions. This book has a few twists and turns that will keep you wondering what happens next. The ending will have readers anxiously awaiting the third book due out in 2020.
