Berufen

Surprisingly good. We follow an independent yet insecure young woman and a newly chosen king with a less than clean record. There was sufficient world building to get the overall picture and I assume it will delve into more depths in the next instalment. Obviously there is a romance sub-plot developing but there was actually no real romance scene (refreshing!). Instead we also have friendship and a growing support between powerful women. There was a POV storyline that I simply cannot place but it is set up to be of importance. Will continue to read.
