Review: Blood Heir by Amelie Wen Zhao

Title:Blood Heir
Author: Amelie Wen Zhao
Narrator:
Audio Length: 13hr 57min
Rating: 4.5/5
Synopsis (Found on Goodreads):

In the Cyrilian Empire, Affinites are reviled. Their varied gifts to control the
world around them are unnatural—dangerous. And Anastacya Mikhailov, the
crown princess, has a terrifying secret. Her deadly Affinity to blood is her curse
and the reason she has lived her life hidden behind palace walls.

Thoughts:

The oblivious sheltered princess who thinks her country functions when in reality
Cryilian Empire enslaves the Affinites who are mostly children. Ana is on a
mission to find who killed her father. Along the way Ana is able to understand her
kingdom and its wrongdoings in ways she couldn't as princess. 

The one man who can help solve the mystery of who killed her father is a notorious
crime lord Ramson. He is a sly little fox and gets under Ana`s skin a lot more than
she wants. I found his character to be the most interesting and hope to get a bit more
of his story moving forward. 

I`m looking forward to book two “Red Tigress.” Although frustrating at times Ana is
a great character to follow. She has a need for retribution and needs to clear her
name. The ending of Blood Heir leaves plenty of room for two more books.

TTFN, Ashley
