Informació de l'obraThe Invasion of the Tearling de Erika Johansen
   Books Read in 2015 (2,100) mom (77) No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Middle books in a trilogy are often a letdown, but this is not. I particularly like the fugue state parts where Kelsea seems to become Lily. Those are vivid and set you up for something intriguing in the final book, I hope. (  ) sennebec | Jun 24, 2022 |  Difficult to put down, and an incredibly complicated double plot going on -- I definitely want to know what happens next. And yet, I find myself troubled by it. I am repulsed at the sheer amount of brutality and rape in the book. I suppose that speaks to the quality of the writing that I am so sickened by it -- generally I have a high tolerance for written violence -- this is nasty. Also there was a huge amount of plot and yet very little happened in some ways. At the end of the book they are still at impasse, Tearling damaged and weak. I've no clue how she plans to resolve it. (  ) jennybeast | Apr 14, 2022 | Just snagged an ARC - can't wait for the weekend! jlabarge | Aug 18, 2021 | 3.5 I found this one a lot more boring than the prior. There were a few things I didn't care for and I wish everything happened faster. While the stakes were higher, I found that there wasn't as much action an I would have preferred more of the Red Queen or just staying in the Tearling longer. While Lily's perspective answered some questions, I didn't care for it most of the time. If I wasn't already invested in the series, I might have skimmed or skipped them. I read this in one day though, so I guess that means it's quite good still. ( ) afrozenbookparadise | Apr 22, 2021 | 3.75* (  ) courty4189 | Mar 24, 2021 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
With each passing day, Kelsea Glynn is growing into her new responsibilities as Queen of the Tearling. By stopping the shipments of slaves to the neighbouring kingdom of Mortmesne, she crossed the Red Queen, a brutal ruler whose power derives from dark magic, who is sending her fearsome army into the Tearling to take what is hers. And nothing can stop the invasion.But as the Mort army draws ever closer, Kelsea develops a mysterious connection to a time before the Crossing, and she finds herself relying on a strange and possibly dangerous ally: a woman named Lily, fighting for her life in a world where being female can feel like a crime. The fate of the Tearling - and that of Kelsea's own soul - may rest with Lily and her story, but Kelsea may not have enough time to find out.In this dazzling sequel to her bestselling debut The Queen of the Tearling, Erika Johansen brings back favourite characters, including the Mace and the Red Queen, and introduces unforgettable new players, adding exciting layers to her multidimensional tale of magic, mystery and a fierce young heroine.
