BLURB
In a cold, empty castle, a young queen is dying.
Weak. Fragile. Disgraced.
But Queen Whitestone is not alone in her final days.
She has her beloved sister.
Until a wicked king rides onto her land.
Arrogant. Insufferable. Demanding.
King Bloodsun has come with an offer…peace in trade for a bride.
He wants the princess.
The fiery king won’t take no for an answer.
He vows to keep the cold queen captive until she gives in to his demands.
A queen bows for no one, though.
Not even when she’s frail and fading away.
She’ll tap into her strength, protecting the only family she has left.
The king is about to learn why they call her the cruel one…
MY OPINION
'Cold Queen' is a sinister version of 'Frozen', which all of us know.
In 'Frozen' we have Elsa, here we have 'Elzira'.
In 'Frozen' we have Elsa's little sister – Anna, here we have Elzira's little sister Yanna.
Finally in 'Frozen' we have a cold kingdom with ice and in 'Cold Queen' we have the same theme.
I was very curious about this story and when 'Cold Queen' appeared on my Kindle, I took it and read. A few hours later I was after this story and... I really don't know what I am thinking about this book.
Elzira is a cold queen. She must grown up fast, because her father died. She must take her sister under her wings and look after Yanna. One day to the Whitestone Kingdom the Bloodsun King arrives. He wants Yanna as a wife, but... when he saw Elzira, he changes his mind.
And in the end he takes, what he wants.
But this is not over. Because the war is coming and they must prepare to defence their kingdoms.
'Cold Queen' is dark and steamy story, but sometimes it was a little too sweet for me. It is a fantasy, but not for the children. Elzira is darker, than Elza and we have a king here of course. A King with a goal. So you know... he will do everything to make this goal real.
It was a good book.
