Prince Elian isn’t comfortable as crown prince – in fact, he feels more at home on his ship, the Saad with his fun crew. While this wasn’t a character-driven book, their characters were well-explored and vivacious! I thoroughly enjoyed their dialogue and their respective character developments. So we’re trapped in this game where the hunters are being hunted by the other, which makes for interesting interactions. To make matters even more difficult, Elian is searching to kill her siren self. The problem is, she has to do this as a human and without any of her siren powers. Her punishment is to steal the heart of Prince Elian, the crown prince of the Midas kingdom known for its wealth and prosperity. Princess Lira is turning eighteen years old and is being punished by her cold mother, the Sea Queen, for defying her orders. Hearts are power, and if there’s one thing my kind craves more than the ocean, it’s power. The dynamics between the siren-fearing humans and human-heart-stealing sirens was really well-written and believable. If humans ever go on ships or travel across the sea, they’re fair game for the sirens. While humans rule on land, sirens rule in the deep sea under the Sea Queen. To Kill A Kingdom paints a gorgeous world of sirens that drag people to their deaths and an amalgam of islands that have separate monarchies. I enjoyed the book from beginning to end, and it’s awesome to hear that the author was also a book blogger as well! This one pushed all the right buttons for me, and I heartily recommend it for fantasy readers craving for a refreshing read. I’ve heard nothing but great things about this book, so obviously I had to pick it up the moment it came out! To Kill A Kingdom really holds up to its promises – a dark atmosphere, heartless heroine, and swoon-worthy slow-burn romance. She promises to help him find the key to destroying all of sirenkind for good-But can he trust her? And just how many deals will Elian have to barter to eliminate mankind’s greatest enemy? When he rescues a drowning woman in the ocean, she’s more than what she appears. Hunting sirens is more than an unsavory hobby-it’s his calling. The ocean is the only place Prince Elian calls home, even though he is heir to the most powerful kingdom in the world. Robbed of her song, Lira has until the winter solstice to deliver Prince Elian’s heart to the Sea Queen or remain a human forever. To punish her daughter, the Sea Queen transforms Lira into the one thing they loathe most-a human. Until a twist of fate forces her to kill one of her own. With the hearts of seventeen princes in her collection, she is revered across the sea. Princess Lira is siren royalty and the most lethal of them all.
