This book was soo good! Iam so happy that we got to come back to this world and read about Gemma. The little girl we first met in the Crown of Shards trilogy.. and I cannot wait until the next book. . I do think that this book gives us enough backround information that it could be read as a standalone. But you would get alot more out of it if you read the previous trilogy.. Or you could just read it because its also super good.. It is now 16 years after the events of the first trilogy and Gemma is a princess... and a spy. She is working in the mines trying to uncover who is behind the thefts of Tearstone. Tearstones are magical gems that can be used for alot of different things and in this case Gemma is afraid that they are going to me used to make weapons that will be used against her own people. So with the help of her bodyguard and her Gargoyle companion Grimley she sets off to see what information she can gather.. . What she doesn't expect to find is Prince Leonides., Someone she met as a child while she was running from a massacre. His family is who Gemma is suspects is behind the thefts, and when something horrible happens and Gemma ends up in the royal families.. She takes the opportunity to figure out what going on, and what she finds is truly surprising. . This book is full of action, and political intrigue.. I love the magic system, and the companions they have like Grimly the Gargoyle or Lyra the Stryx ( a bird like creature that can be ridden). I also love that even though Gemma has been through some horrible things she still is able to show compassion and not lump a whole group of people into one category. Leonides is also a pretty interesting guy.. I can't wait to see how Gemma and Leo will figure out their relationship and get more of the amazing chemistry they have.. . I have already preordered this book and can't wait for more books by Jennifer Estep.
