The book was easy and a great change of scenery from the triplets story. It was a good look at Queen Elsabet's story and learn more about the Oracle power.
I really like Elsabet. She was kind and was focused on the the people wanted. Too bad her ways went unappreciated and some people conspired against her.
Although, Elsabet did make some stupid and impulsive decisions sometimes and let her emotions get the best of her. She had good reason but it ruined her image and make her look really bad and unreliable. I also wished we knew how she killed her sisters, it's hinted at, but never fully explored.
This novella was good, it had me at the edge of my seat, the twists were good, the antagonists were good, and it was definitely better than The Young Queens, another novella in the Three Dark Crown series.
SMALL SPOILER BELOW
I hate the Arron's even more now. They are EVIL.
I was really hoping that this novella would add something far more Important to the main series but nope.
Over all I like it but it lacked of purpose, and the ending was like a sharp blade, I was hoping for more. Maybe an explanation of the rest of her life? Did she just accepted that was trap in the tower and that was it?
I think it had potential but wasn't explored.
