I would recommend if you are a fan of the series.

I enjoyed this one a lot more than the first one, the characters were interesting and there was a lot of action.Overall both novellas were well written and easy to read. We watch as she discovers Mare Barrow and starts to formulate ideas about how to overthrow the Silvers. This one follows Diana Farley as she strives to plant seeds of dissension in Norta and spark a rebellion there. It gives some good background about Cal’s parents, but was a pretty short read.The second novella is much longer and explains in more detail the actions of the Scarlet Guard. This novella very melancholy and depressing, but still very engaging and sweet. As events progress Queen Coriane becomes paranoid that her thoughts are being used against her by a rival at court. The first novella is set in the past and is the diary of Queen Coriane, the first wife of King Tiberius. The first novella takes place before Red Queen and the second takes place at the same time as Red Queen. This book contained two well done novellas set in the Red Queen world. She was raised to be strong, but planting the seeds of rebellion in Norta is a tougher job than expected-until she stumbles upon a connection that may prove to be the key to the entire operation: Mare Barrow.Īnd don't miss War Storm, the thrilling final book in the bestselling Red Queen series!
