By scheming and theft, the Thief of Eddis has become King of Attolia. Eugenides wanted the queen, not the crown, but he finds himself trapped in a web of his own making. Then he drags a naive young guard into the center of the political maelstrom. Poor Costis knows he is the victim of the king's caprice, but his contempt for Eugenides slowly turns to grudging respect. Though struggling against his fate, the newly crowned king is much more than he appears. Soon the corrupt Attolian court will learn that its subtle and dangerous intrigue is no match for Eugenides.Point Books Concering The King of Attolia (The Queen's Thief #3)

How can it be possible to love a book , and , a series this much ??!!I love ,, love ,, absolutely and completely love this series, my love grows more and more with every book. I feel like I'll never ever again enjoy a book unless it's written by Megan Whalen Turner and have Eugenides in it. And if you are waiting for a proper review, sorry .. don't, am only using this space to show how much I love this series and this book , if I can!!Diabolically clever. I love this series.
It's weird how I find the most difficult books to review are those that I knew were going to be amazing... and yep, this was amazing! I mean, what do you say that actually means anything? I could ramble on about fantastic writing, brilliant characters, excellent plot, this would all be true but the words are so empty and don't convey what I love about this series.They don't say how this intricate fantasy world pulls you in with it's politics, it's culture and it's superstitions.

Second read: 5⭐Every time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Im feeling SO DOWN right now. Why must all good things come to an end? 😣This series keeps getting better and better with each book and Eugenides just keeps surprising me in ways I never see coming. Outstanding writing. Intricate political intrigue. A damn fine lead character whose brilliance and cunning ways leaves you wanting more... ughhh!👏🙌 SO. GOOD!

It was definitely my favourite book in the series and everything we have learned about our characters comes into play here. Obviously I cant go into plot, to many spoilers would be given and I like to keep
Best book in the series alert! Best book in the series alert! So this is totally the best book in the series so far. Loooooved it.I dont know if Ive ever read a story before that had a romance like this that was so subtle, and yet so freakin complicated. I cant help but feel a little uncomfortable about the relationship, but at the same time I am deeply moved by it. Theres no way to forget the past, not for these two, not with the harsh reminder they must live with every day -- but the way they
This third instalment in Megan Whalen Turner's The Queen's Thief series is easily the best yet. I feel like this series is getting better and better as it progresses as Turner seems to have figured out what works and what does not and makes the correct adjustments. This series is an old school coming of age YA fantasy story in many ways but what sets it apart is that the focus tends to be on intrigue and character development rather than flashy action scenes. It also helps that Turner is a
