The highly anticipated conclusion to the Stolen Heir duology by no. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author Holly Black.

An imprisoned prince. A vengeful queen. And a battle that will determine the future of Elfhame.

Prince Oak is paying for his betrayal. Imprisoned in the icy north and bound to the will of a monstrous new queen, he must rely on charm and calculation to survive. With High King Cardan and High Queen Jude ready to use any means necessary to retrieve their stolen heir, should Oak attempt to regain the trust of the girl he's always loved, or remain loyal to Elfhame and hand over the means to end her reign - even if it means ending Wren too...

With war looming and treachery lurking in every corner, neither Oak's guile nor his wit will be enough to keep everyone he loves alive. He will have some terrible choices to make.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black comes the stunning blood-soaked conclusion to the Stolen Heir duology.©2024 Holly Black (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK Epic Fantasy Science Fiction & Fantasy Dark Fantasy Fiction Fantasy Epic Royalty Literature & Fiction Romance Paranormal Romance Paranormal

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

I enjoyed this way more than the first book. had aloy more going on. loved the character development and how deeply the character feeling were stydied. Carden and jude made a cameo.

I enjoyed the story, I love everything to do with the faery world created by Holly Black. But I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the first. I liked that we got to see things from Oaks perspective, but I enjoyed Wren’s character so much more. I found his character more difficult to identify with (I am not a spoilt fairy prince). I also found the performance to have less connection and emotion than the voice actor who played Wren. I am looking forward to seeing what happens next in the Undersea!

Not as good as the first

Honestly, I love the fact there were Jude and Cardan like that’s the only reason I preordered this but idk the story is kinda a let down. It’s not the same feeling you gotten after finishing reading The Wicked King or Queen of Nothing. Like, the story is just, I’m just saying Wren should do more worse things as they were building up her character to be in the first book. Sorta a let down cuz Wren and Oak could be ‘more’ than what they written to be in this.

A bit of a let down
