The Frozen Crown left off, Kellyâs latest feminist epic fantasy is even better than her debut. After death witch Askia, Queen of Seravesh, witnesses the assassination of her new husband, Emperor Armaan of Vishir, before the marriage is even consummated, she is abducted and imprisoned by Radovan, Emperor of Roven.

When it comes to Young Adult novels, what made me first fall in love with the genre as a teenager was the wealth of female protagonists and heroines that displayed courage, confidence, and a sisterhood that ran through the length of each memorable story.
