Cate Pearce is at it again with her sequel to Traitors of the Black Crown.
Nicknamed by fans of the book an LGBT+ Game of Thrones, Cate’s sequel Defenders of the Black Crown is set to pick up where book one left off, leaving us reeling over the cliffhanger ending. Returning with not three but four point of view characters, we cannot wait to see what trials Cate puts our favorite characters through this time.
“The Queen is dead.
A new enemy is rising to power from beyond the coastline.
Raena, an heir to the throne, takes her place as ruler of Candor. But she cannot reveal her true identity as a woman or she will surely be executed.
Avenna, once a duchess, returns to her life as a commoner. She hardens her heart and leaves her true love Raena, but will a heinous assault reunite them?
Sylas, a Lord displaced, is forced to lead the refugees and prisoners out of the Boen slaughter. He may be the only one to stop the next war between dwellers of the ocean and the land.
And Bell, the noblewoman, finds the way to command a kingdom is sometimes through gaining the ear (and the bed) of a King.
In this second book of the Black Crown series, Raena, Aven, and their allies learn that it will take more than power and titles to overturn years of oppression, but they might die trying.”
You can find Defenders of the Black Crown available for preorder on the Our Books page. Be on the lookout for the cover reveal, coming soon.
