Review
Our wayward princess has been badly injured and is healing in a healing house. Her injuries are severe, and the recovery long as she comes around to where she arrived and who cares she is under. She has played at being a wren, a krestral, a finch, a skylark, and a phoenix. Now it was time to face her duty and make her way back to Cascada and reclaim her throne. The author weaves this plot, so wonderfully the twits and turns are so intriguing as our hidden princess makes her way back to claim her throne. The fantastic way she has kept herself from being discovered is so wonderfully crafted. This series is impressive in its creativeness, and I am ready for the final book and our princella to take back her kingdom.

About Sarah Kozloff
Sarah has spent her life immersed in literature, narrative, and film.
After a degree in English at Dartmouth she worked in film production in NYC. She earned a Ph.D. from an interdisciplinary program at Stanford University, joining the Film Department of Vassar College in 1988. In 2009 she was awarded the William R. Kenan Jr. Endowed Chair.
In 2012, while teaching a senior seminar on American Women Directors, she realized that neither the books nor films of Lord of the Rings could pass the Bechdel Test. That summer, she grabbed her laptop and started imagining a world that awaited the return of the queen.
She didn’t know then that this leap into creative writing would spark a new career. Her epic fantasy quartet, The Nine Realms, was published by TOR on a rapid publications schedule. All four books, A Queen in Hiding, The Queen of Raiders, A Broken Queen, and The Cerulean Queen, came out from January through April 2020.
She lives in the Hudson Valley with her husband and a shifting menagerie of pets, who mistakenly believe they are suitable replacements for grown sons.
