Hunted by his enemies, he accepts refuge among the Eosyths, at the bidding of Serena of Clan Darom. But Serena and her family are also Bel-Tygeon's enemies, and he must conceal his true name and royal rank from them--even when he realizes that Serena is the woman he has sought for years. The woman he loves. The woman he longs to proclaim as his queen. Yet she can never be his. Serena of Clan Darom wants nothing more than to protect her family and to save her people, the Eosyths, from their many enemies. She cannot afford to fall in love with a madman. A stranger. Yet honor dictates that she must shelter Ty and protect him with her life. Will one act of kindness destroy everything she worked for and believed? And how can the unknowable Infinite, worshiped by her lord-father, ever help her in their struggle to survive?"--Provided by publisher.

Once I again I am amazed by R.J. Larson's talent for writing fantasy. I was totally swept away to the land of the Eosyths and to the great city of Sulaanc. I was hooked on these books with Prophet and each successive title only draws me further in, Queen was no exception. The sheer amount of detail in the peoples, lands, and customs is a delight to read. And the fact that R.J. loosely weaves Biblical re-tellings into her tales is major bonus in my opinion. In Queen I saw bits of Esther, Nebuchadnezzar, and Jael.
Queen is an exciting and engrossing tale leaving me unable to put my Kindle down. I breathlessly turned the pages wondering what would happen next to my favorite characters and how the Infinite would move. With each of the books in this series I have felt drawn closer to God and even a little convicted at times, "Child of Dust, are you My servant?"
R.J. Larson is a woman of talent, writing fantasy and Biblical fiction equally as well. I've never been overly big on fantasy, even Christian, but she has convinced me otherwise. I eagerly await and devour each of her books. And Queen is book you won't want to miss!
(I received a copy of this e-book from the author via TBCN in exchange for my honest review.)
