4/5
Thanks to Netgalley and Bonnier Zaffre for giving me this
book to review
To Kill a Kingdom is a really enjoyable dark fantasy book
which is kind of a retelling of little mermaid. If you love action, morally
grey characters, witty banter and a complex and slow burn romance then this is
the book for you. It had really good world building and an imaginative world on
which I would like to explore.
Lira is a badass character who can come across as
emotionless and cold-hearted, but this is because of the Siren culture and her
mother’s emotional abuse. Elian is an adventurous spirit, who is sassy and
scheming, and while he is not that innocent, he does have a strong moral
compass.
I really enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to
seeing what Christo does next. I would recommend To Kill a Kingdom to fans of
the Shades of Magic series and the Grishaverse series.
