BOOK REVIEW: "Pride Of Empires" by J.S. Bangs


Safe in the Emperor's Tower, Kirshta has finally achieved the rank and recognition that 
he's craved for so long. But intrigues of the imperial court give him no time to enjoy his 
position. The new Emperor descends into paranoia and sends Kirshta chasing a phantasmal 
conspiracy, forcing him to choose between betraying his friends and losing everything he's 
worked for. 
Meanwhile, Sadja arrives in the capital city to find that his schemes have come to 
naught. Determined to take the Seven-Stepped Throne for himself, he must seek out new allies 
inside the imperial palace. Fortunately, the new Emperor needs a great many advisors, and 
Sadja is very pleased to help.

I received an ARC copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Having read the two previous books in this series, I can safely say that Pride of Empires is the absolute best yet. In this book, not only to we get a deeper look inside the psyche of the characters, we also go further into the politics of the story. It's intricately weaved to wrap around your mind and draw you in.
I want to say a lot, but with this being a third book, I am afraid to give spoilers.
I will say that I love how these characters grow and change in each book, becoming more themselves and revealing themselves to us. These books always have great plots, but I believe it is the characters that really drive the story here.

5/5--an excellent book!

Purchase Pride Of Empires via Amazon.
