Le prince cruel

Jude, in her need to safely navigate the treacherous world of Faerie, finds herself catching a tiger by the tail.

I’m not the target audience for this, and that’s fine. The writing is fine, as is the world-building, and the characters. They are on par with what I’d expect from this genre, and it’s fine. A bit tropey at times, but, again, that’s to be expected. I'd have liked more political intrigue, and perhaps more layers to both story and characters, but that's not the point of this book. Still, I’ll probably read the rest of the series just to have done it.

It started a bit slow, introducing world and main characters but around two thirds of the book it took a very story defining turning point and the pace went up heavily. I enjoyed especially the last part and will be continuing with the other books of the series.
