Glint (The Plated Prisoner, 2)

From internationally bestselling author and TikTok phenom Raven Kennedy comes the second book in a stunning fantasy series inspired by the myth of King Midas, perfect for fans of Sarah J Maas and Jennifer L Armentrout.

For ten years, I've lived in a gilded cage inside King Midas's golden castle. But one night changed everything.

Now I'm here, a prisoner of Fourth Kingdom's army, and I'm not sure if I'm going to make it out of this in one piece. They're marching to battle, and I'm the bargaining chip that will either douse the fire or spark a war.

At the heart of my fear, my worry, there's him--Commander Rip.

Known for his brutality on the battlefield, his viciousness is unsurpassed. But I know the truth about what he is.

Fae.

The betrayers. The murderers. The ones who nearly destroyed Orea, wiping out Seventh Kingdom in the process. Rip has power sizzling beneath this skin and glinting spikes down his spine. But his eyes--his eyes are the most compelling of all.

When he turns those black eyes on me, I feel captive for an entirely different reason.

I may be out of my cage, but I'm not free, not even close. In the game of kings and armies, I'm the gilded pawn. The question is, can I out maneuver them?

This was an improvement to the first book but they are still overly long without much action. The reveals are done well but this and the first book should have been cut down and made into 1 book. There’s a lot of similarity to ACOTAR (not just because it’s the same actor) but the execution never lands. The duet narration is at least a blessing. I think the acting is well done particularly because Lilly drake annoys the hell out of me as the haughty queen, which is spot on.

3.8 I was causally interested in this series after the first book, but this one brought me back and now, I am deeply invested. Heading straight to book 3!

It's really fun to see how Auren is gaining her confidence back little by little and learning more of her backstory. I also am kind of liking seeing Malinas story. I had some predictions that turned out to be turn and I'm so excited for book 3!!
