1. Seven Realms Series--Cinda Williams Chima

In an attempt to make my life a little easier (I am behind on quite a few reviews), I am going to review this entire series in one post.

Title: The Demon King
Author: Cinda Williams Chima
Publisher: Hyperion, 2009.
Pages: 506 p.
Source: Library e-book
Compensation: None
Read: June 2015

Cinda Williams Chima's The Demon King
I enjoyed Cinda Williams Chima's other series--The Heir Chronicles--but I really liked this one. In this first book we are introduced to Han, a rough street kid with a heart of gold and thick silver cuffs on his wrist that he cannot take off. Selling those cuffs could feed his family but they are magically attached to him and all they've ever done is give him his streetname--Cuffs. Things start happening for Han when he runs into the bratty son of the High Wizard and he and his friend Dancer steal the boy's magical amulet. At the same time, the young Princess heir Raisa has just returned to court determined to be more than a figurehead ruler. When Raisa and Han's worlds collide, the entire Seven Realms will never be the same.

Title: The Exiled Queen
Author: Cinda Williams Chima
Publisher: Hyperion, 2010.
Pages: 586 p.
Source: Library e-book
Compensation: None
Read: June 2015

Chima's The Exiled Queen
Han has finally been able to remove his cuffs and claim his role as a wizard, alongside his clan friend Dancer. They enroll at Mystwerk house to learn proper sorcery. On the same campus, Raisa has secretly enlisted at the military academy to escape the High Wizard's devious plan to marry her to his son. Raisa learns more than she expects while posing as regular student Rebecca Morley. 

Title: The Gray Wolf Throne
Author: Cinda Williams Chima
Publisher: Hyperion, 2011.
Pages: 517 p.
Source: Amazon e-book
Compensation: None
Read: June 2015

Chima's The Gray Wolf Throne
Han discovers his good friend Rebecca Morley near death and knows he must do everything he can to save her. When he discovers her true identity he feels betrayed and hurt. Han has never had any love for the royalty who are responsible for so much pain in his life. But he must honor his vow to help Raisa become Queen. Raisa is unsure of Han's loyalty. They both doubt each other's motives but cannot deny the bond they share.

Title: The Crimson Crown
Author: Cinda Williams Chima
Publisher: Hyperion, 2012.
Pages: 608 p.
Source: Amazon ebook
Compensation: None
Read: June 2015

Chima's The Crimson Crown
Queen Raisa is faced with the difficult task of uniting her warring kingdom, protecting it from outside enemies, and repairing the hostility between the clan people and the wizards. Han does his best to help her, but he seems to cause even more hostility and trouble. The series wraps up when a thousand-year-old lie is finally uncovered.

I loved this whole series. I loved Han and Raisa, I loved the clan and wizard conflict, the world-building. Fantasy, romance, political intrigue. I loved it enough to buy the last two e-books in the series so I could read them immediately.
