Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Capture the Crown by Jennifer Estep



This takes place in the world of Strixes and Gargoyles.   Strixes are pterodactylish and gargoyles are what you would expect except mobile.  I first posted on Estep, eleven years ago. I enjoyed her work then and I still do.

This book follows the Crown of Shards series.   I enjoyed Crush the King, Kill the Queen and Protect the Prince, the three books in that series.  This is the first book in the Gargoyle Queen series.   Same world, mostly different people populate this book.  Gemma is suffering from PTSD, of course, in Estep’s fantasy world this isn’t named as such.  She is striving to establish self-esteem and therefore takes more chances than are truly prudent. Tearstone has been disappearing from the family mine and Gemma decides to go undercover to determine why.

There is the obligatory love story as well as solid action and a devious plot.   Estep’s characters are always multidimensional which provides them with a firm belief footing.

This book indicates that this series should be as much fun to read as the last.

I recommend the book.
