Queen of Dreams

I felt like I was missing something at first. It took some time to get fully emerged in the story because this is not a standalone or a first book in a series.

I loved the characters. That was the magical of the story for me. They came to life so beautifully. The story was a little complex and it took me some time to figure out all the strands but this was one heck of an audio book!

I was really sad when it finished but I have book 1 now so I am a happy camper

As far as fantasy books go, this one should be on your radar!

I found this a satisfying conclusion to this fantasy romance duology. While the focus of book one, CONSORT OF FIRE, was largely on the developing relationship between Ash, Sachi, and Zanya, this second book puts the brewing world politics more front and center. Our main characters and the rest of the gods in the Court of Dreamers are gearing up for a war on two fronts, and they’re fighting with every tool in their arsenal. There’s politicking to be had at royal banquets, training of latent magical gifts, and a truly impressive climactic battle scene on the scale of gods. Whilst there were fewer spicy scenes they were longer and more intense more Scotch Bonnet than Habanero I'd say.

I have read that Kit Rocha's is planning more stories in this world one focusing on Aleksi, the god known as the Lover. Certainly some of the characters in these stories were intriguing and the world building interesting enough to carry more stories.
