Week 51 Review: The Winter Duke

From Goodreads:
She survived the curse. Now she must survive the throne.

All Ekata wants is to stay alive--and the chance to prove herself as a scholar. Once Ekata's brother is finally named heir to the dukedom of Kylma Above, there will be nothing to keep her at home with her murderous family. Not her books or her experiments, not her family's icy castle atop a frozen lake, not even the tantalizingly close Kylma Below, a mesmerizing underwater kingdom that provides her family with magic. But just as escape is within reach, her parents and twelve siblings fall under a strange sleeping sickness, and no one can find a cure.

In the space of a single night, Ekata inherits the title of duke, her brother's captivating warrior bride, and ever-encroaching challengers from without--and within--her ministry. Nothing has prepared Ekata for diplomacy, for war, for love...or for a crown she has never wanted. If Kylma Above is to survive, Ekata must seize her family's magic and power. And if Ekata is to survive, she must quickly decide how she will wield them both.

The Winter Duke is an enchanted tale of intrigue by Claire Eliza Bartlett, author of the acclaimed feminist fantasy We Rule the Night.

Week 21 Review: We Rule the Night

From Goodreads:
Two girls use forbidden magic to fly and fight -- for their country and for themselves -- in this riveting debut that's part Shadow and Bone, part Code Name Verity.

Seventeen-year-old Revna is a factory worker, manufacturing war machines for the Union of the North. When she's caught using illegal magic, she fears being branded a traitor and imprisoned. Meanwhile, on the front lines, Linné defied her father, a Union general, and disguised herself as a boy to join the army. They're both offered a reprieve from punishment if they use their magic in a special women's military flight unit and undertake terrifying, deadly missions under cover of darkness. Revna and Linné can hardly stand to be in the same cockpit, but if they can't fly together, and if they can't find a way to fly well, the enemy's superior firepower will destroy them -- if they don't destroy each other first.

We Rule the Night is a fiercely compelling story about sacrifice, complicated friendships, and survival against impossible odds.

My Review:
I had such a fantastic time reading this book! I've really enjoyed her other two books, and I was particularly obsessed with The Winter Duke, so I was really looking forward to this one. It was such a great read, I couldn't put it down!

It was really great to get both of their perspectives. Linné had pretended to be a guy, so she could be a solider, so she has the training and discipline for that, but since she was a girl, the only way she could stay when she was found out, was to be put in this unit. Which didn't work too well, since they basically shrugged off the rules that were so important to her.

And Reyna, a factory worker, hiding her ability, since they took away her father because of it. But now that they've found a use for it in the war...well.  I was rooting for her, even when things were horrible-like when they were ordered to bomb her hometown, just in case, so that the enemy couldn't take it. 

But oh, that ending? That was kinda depressingly realistic, that they had to reshape their story to take away all that they accomplished and give it to other people. That was just tragic, and after all the atrocities of the war, was a pretty grim ending. And made all the infuriating by how little credit any of the girls got, even after putting in twice the effort, throughout the whole book. 

Loved reading this book, and I hope there will be more from Claire Eliza Bartlett, but it doesn't look good since The Good Girls came out in December 2020.

Week 7 Review: The Winter Duke

From Goodreads:
She survived the curse. Now she must survive the throne.

All Ekata wants is to stay alive--and the chance to prove herself as a scholar. Once Ekata's brother is finally named heir to the dukedom of Kylma Above, there will be nothing to keep her at home with her murderous family. Not her books or her experiments, not her family's icy castle atop a frozen lake, not even the tantalizingly close Kylma Below, a mesmerizing underwater kingdom that provides her family with magic. But just as escape is within reach, her parents and twelve siblings fall under a strange sleeping sickness, and no one can find a cure.

In the space of a single night, Ekata inherits the title of duke, her brother's captivating warrior bride, and ever-encroaching challengers from without--and within--her ministry. Nothing has prepared Ekata for diplomacy, for war, for love...or for a crown she has never wanted. If Kylma Above is to survive, Ekata must seize her family's magic and power. And if Ekata is to survive, she must quickly decide how she will wield them both.

The Winter Duke is an enchanted tale of intrigue by Claire Eliza Bartlett, author of the acclaimed feminist fantasy We Rule the Night.

My Review:
Wow, absolutely loved reading this book! The idea of a Kylma Above and a Kylma Below-a kingdom of merfolk, basically, that harvest magic, that in the Above, only the Duke Above can really use, is such a fantastic idea!

And the whole plot where Ekata inherits the title, and has to take the power, even though she didn't want it, and oh yeah, they were both scientists, reminded me a lot of Long May She Reign by Rhiannon Thomas. Which was great, because I loved that book!

I really enjoyed watching Ekata deal with the politics because she wasn't trained on this, and she's thrown into the deep end. Plus she has to deal with the machinations of her own court, as well as deal with the Court Below. 

There was a lot going on, from the trials to officially become the duke, leaning about the magic, finding out what happened to her family, dealing with her new wife who seems to be better at the position then herself, and trying to keep from marrying Sigis. And it was a heck of a ride and I really enjoyed how it all wrapped up! I had such a great time reading it!

This was a fantastic read, and I can't wait to read more by Claire Eliza Barlett!

OK, so I got 74 posts in 7 days, because I had the week off (because I booked it off because of my birthday on the 24th) and I read a lot, so blogged a lot about it, yeah! Back to work today, but yeah, hoping to get a few more books for CSAC! What about you guys? Happy reading!

So this week I want to read The Eyes of Tamburah, The City of Zirdai, and Heartless.

Treasure hunting has never been more dangerous... Tomb Raider meets Poison Study!

New York Times bestselling author Maria Snyder begins an action-packed new fantasy series.

'He thinks you are the thief...'

Shyla is a researcher who resides in the underground desert city of Zirdai, which is ruled by the wealthy Water Prince and brutal Heliacal Priestess. Even though Shyla is sun-kissed - an outcast, considered cursed by the Sun Goddess - she is still renowned for uncovering innumerable archaic facts, lost artefacts, ancient maps, and obscure historical documents. Her quiet life is about to change when Banqui, an archaeologist, enlists her services to find The Eyes of Tamburah: legendary gemstones that bestows great magic to its wielder. These ancient objects can tip the balance of power and give whoever possesses them complete control of the city.

But chaos erupts when The Eyes are stolen soon after they're found - and Shyla is blamed for the theft. Forced to flee, with the Prince's soldiers and the Priestess' deacons on her trail, Shyla must recover the jewels and clear her name. A quest that will unearth secrets even more valuable than The Eyes of Tamburah themselves...
Vengeance is irresistible…

Kaysar the Unhinged One, fae King of Midnight, can drive anyone to madness with his song. A ruthless warrior forged in hate, he lives to force his enemies to their knees. He will stop at nothing to succeed—even abduct and seduce his foe’s beloved bride, ensuring his own child one day sits on the male’s throne. Except, his prize escapes to the mortal realm before the first kiss, her heart transplanted into a mortal beauty with dangerous secrets…

Chantel “Cookie” Bardot is a professional gamer girl great at trash talking, bad at peopling. After a long awaited surgery, she begins to morph into a powerful fae princess. Catapulted into a strange land ruled by a cruel but seductive villain, she must battle flesh and blood monsters and navigate royal intrigues. But the true danger is Kaysar, whose every wicked touch tempts her beyond reason. Should she run…or descend into the darkness with him?
