Synopsis

For thousands of years, two realms of unspeakable magic and mystery have existed in peace side by side. One is a land of light, of kindness, of dreams, and of color. The other is rendered in the gray lines of wickedness and seeped in the unbearable beauty of all that is forbidden. The first is ruled by the Seelie King. The other is ruled by Caliban . . . The Unholy.

Minerva Trystaine has always been the quiet twin, bullied by reality's fierceness into a life of solitary sensitivity. What she witnesses, she feels. Living in a world that breeds one misfortune after another, she has had no choice but to sequester herself from outgoing life and any hope it might have otherwise offered her. She hides in her music, her hopes and dreams silent but for the harmony she gives them upon rare occasion, allowing them to be heard in perfect pitch by the rest of the world. But when Minerva's sister, Selene, is forced into a fantastical realm of supernatural magic and mystery and taken as queen of the seelie kingdom, the twins are reunited with a world they can scarcely remember—but could never forget. They are Wishers. Born of furious magic and fueled by the need for justice, Wishers are the most feared magic users in the fae realms.

Contains mature themes.

This really is kind of finishing up things that were started in the previous book The Seelie King: The Kings, Book Five but stands on its own pretty much but it grabs you from almost page one and the action hardly slows down. Minerva the sister of the now Seelie Queen is possibly the most powerful fa......more

I hate spoilers...Heather has a way with her stories. They suck you in and keep you tied up until the epilogue where you get spat out. She came through yet again with another amazing King story. Heather has never disappointed her readers in any of her books. She truly is an amazing storyteller.......more

Goodreads review by Dawn on July 01, 2018

Missed Opportunity Don't get me wrong. I'm reading the whole series and enjoying the stories, but the Grammar Geek in me is dying inside. The wrong words. Omitted words. Frequently awkward sentence structure. These things stop me abruptly and kill the fantasy. It's gotten worse with each book in the......more

AudioBook Review: Stars: Overall 4 Narration 4 Story 4 Not having read earlier in the series, the world is one in which thirteen kings shall ultimately battle it out for supremacy (I think), and each book introduces a new King and his Queen, while their rise to prominence is detailed. A bit of an on......more

Goodreads review by Bambi on April 09, 2018

Man, it's been four or five years since I've read the earlier books in this series and I couldn't for the life of me remember what happened in those books. I probably should have went back and re-read at least the last book, but I was being optimistic. Luckily, I was still entertained even though my......more
