My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book the most of the series so far.

2 different storylines that are almost 2 separate sub-plots. One about bringing political unity to some Hawaiin like world and the second about Princess Kristine saving her world from the Peterwalds.

I did not see the death of Tom coming at all. But since he’d gotten married, he was no longer a potential love interest to Kris, and hence his literary value went down to zero.

The battle at the end was pretty good. I’d like to see the Peterwalds get a direct bloody nose instead of the indirects that have been happening. Oh well, I’m sure it is coming.
