***5 ‘Raging Insanity’ Stars***
*does a Carlton-esque happy dance*
Ok that ending...that I’m totally down with!!
*squeee in absolute delight over what is to come*
But first my thoughts on this addition to the series…I’m going to sound like a broken recorded because I think I say basically the same thing about all the books by this author...this was all kinds of snort/laugh OTT crazy chaotic goodness! With all the unique characters, their strange and hostile (most of the time) yet loving (some of the time) relationships with each other, it’s hard for me not to love it all.
Now for Gemma and Quinn, well this quote from the book sums it up pretty well
”Both of you are too annoying to be with anyone else”
But outside of what they are to each other, they are both stubborn, protective and truly want to do the right thing, even if it means annoying the hell out of each other and everyone around them.
As for the series story arc, a lot of ground was covered in this book when it came to all that Beatrix was up to and just how much Keely, the Blacksmith Queen and those who are loyal to her are actually facing, and I’m totally making grabby hands at the next one in the series because the chaotic goodness is going up exponentially!

In New York Times bestselling author G.A. Aiken’s gripping new fantasy romance series, the Blacksmith Queen must confront armies and pretenders desperate to take her new-won crown. But with the Princess Knight at her side and a centaur warrior clan at her back, she’ll risk everything for victory . . .
LONG LIVE THE QUEEN
Gemma Smythe dedicated her life to the glory of battle. With her fellow War Monks, she worshipped the war gods, rained destruction on her enemies, and raised the dead when the fancy took her. Until her sister Keeley became the prophesied Blacksmith Queen, and Gemma broke faith with her order to journey to the Amichai Mountain and fight by Keeley’s side.
The Amichai warriors are an unruly, never-to-be-tamed lot, especially their leader-in-waiting, Quinn. But when the War Monks declare support for Gemma’s ruthless younger sister Beatrix, the immaturity of her key ally is the least of Gemma’s problems. She has to get to the grand masters, dispel their grudge against her, and persuade them to fight for Keeley and justice. If her conviction can’t sway them, perhaps Quinn’s irritating, irreverent, clearly unhinged, ferocity will win the day . . .
