The Liar's Key
The Liar's Key | Mark Lawrence
The Red Queen has set her players on the board. Winter is keeping Prince Jalan Kendeth far from the longed-for luxuries of his southern palace. And although the North may be home to his companion, the warrior Snorri ver Snagason, he is just as eager to leave. For the Viking is ready to challenge all of Hell to bring his wife and children back into the living world. He has Loki's key - now all he needs is to find the door. As all wait for the ice to unlock its jaws, the Dead King plots to claim what was so nearly his - the key into the world - so that the dead can rise and rule

🎧 Book 2 of The Red Queen‘s War.

The continuing story of an unlikely friendship between morally gray Prince Jalan & a Viking named Snorri.

I think of them as DeadPool & Thor 😆

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ 👇🏻

Twainy Well the book picks up after their last hilarious near-death adventure with them in possession of Loki‘s key! It opens all doors. Snorri wants to open Death‘s door to retrieve his wife & child.

So many crazy situations! The key reminds me of a certain ring.

I laughed out loud multiple times!

It‘s dark. It‘s sarcastic. It‘s fun & hilarious! My kind of fantasy! I wish all fantasy books were this much fun!

I did not enjoy this quite as much as the first. I suppose Mark Lawrence is setting us up for the finale, but the story seemed a bit drawn out. Still, the witty humor kept me turning the page and that ending was definitely worth the wait! I have very high expectations of book 3.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 47.

A great fantasy author 👍🏻

Cathythoughts ♥️👍🏻nice one 6y
Melissa_J I really have to try one of his books this year. 6y
TrishB @Melissa_J this is my least favourite trilogy - but still a good read. His first trilogy (Broken Empire) is brilliant - but reviews always go on about violence (they are- just saying!) and his current trilogy is great (Book of the Ancestor!) 6y

I found this to be a bit drawn out and although I never lost interest, I didn't find it as immersive as book 1. It had less momentum but I liked that we got a better look into Prince Jalan's family history. His story seemed to have been the focus of this book which I really enjoyed exploring. A lot of things come to a head but not much is resolved leaving a lot to be tied up in book 3. That being said I really enjoyed those read.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

Hero is finding his path!
Here I am, after looong ten days, just finished reading this one. I must say, two or three times I almost gave up on finishing it, because parts of it were, in my opinion, unnecessary, but the ending of the book is really breathtaking. The conclusion is, I think this second book from the Red Queens's War trilogy is the bridge to the amazing finale, The Wheel of Osheim! 🔱

The second book in The Red Queen's War series will leave you anxiously waiting for #3. Love Mark Lawrence's books.

Vinjii Should I read his other series first or this one? 8y
BookDude I would start with the other series first. 8y

"Animals are generally good judges of character-they don't like me-except for horses which, for reasons I've never understood, give me their all. Perhaps it's our shared interest in running way that forms the bond."

Starting this tonight. If you haven't read Mark Lawrence's Broken Empire series, I highly recommend you do. This is the 2nd in the Red Queen's War. l
