Synopsis:(from GoodReads)
Three girls with three deadly secrets. Only one can wear the crown.
The king is dying, his heir has just been murdered, and rebellion brews in the east. But the kingdom of Kolonya and the outer Reaches has one last option before it descends into leaderless chaos.
Or rather, three unexpected options.
Rating: 4/ 5
When I first picked up this book I was worried it was going to be extremely
similar to Kendare Blake’s Three Dark Crowns series. I was pleasantly surprised
to find it to be very different. Three girls who live in complete opposite parts of
Kolonya and completely different backgrounds. Each of them with a secret that
could get each of them in serious trouble.
The heir to the throne is dead. The king is dying; but there is one last option
before chaos occurs. Zodiac, Akeylah, and Ren are the kings illegitimate daughters,
but still his daughters and heirs to the throne. Each of the girls have a target on their
backs. Someone knows their secrets and they must find who it is before they all are
exposed.
I enjoyed Rule because each of the girls had assets as to what they could do to
uncover who was behind the blackmailing. The learn that they have to work together
and that they may not be so different from each other as they originally thought.
Excited to see where this story goes in the future.
