Valoria, an island kingdom, has had four years to recover from Elizabeth's conquest, but it won't be enough. In the capital, her advisors seem to rule Elizabeth's kingdom for her, disregarding her authority whenever they think it safe. In the south, one who she deposed has appeared, and is lurking just out of reach. Across the Silent Sea, in Akara, a prince and his sister move for action, while in Theoria another princess bides her time. Ambition grows, and lesser players fall. Pawns seize power, and suddenly everything is spiraling out of control. *Volume 1 in the Queen's Crown series* *Completed* Sequel: *Passive* Ongoing Prequel: *Conquest, volume 1* Ongoing
