Fantasy. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.) HTML:The highly anticipated next book in the New York Times bestselling, award-winning Graceling Realm series, which has sold 1.7 million copies.
For the past five years, Bitterblue has reigned as Queen of Monsea, heroically rebuilding her nation after her father's horrific rule. After learning about the land of Torla in the east, she sends envoys to the closest nation there: Winterkeepâ??a place where telepathic foxes bond with humans, and people fly across the sky in wondrous airships. But when the envoys never return, having drowned under suspicious circumstances, Bitterblue sets off for Winterkeep herself, along with her spy Hava and her trusted colleague Giddon. On the way, tragedy strikes againâ??a tragedy with devastating political and personal ramifications.
Meanwhile, in Winterkeep, Lovisa Cavenda waits and watches, a fire inside her that is always hungry. The teenage daughter of two powerful politicians, she is the key to unlocking everythingâ??but only if she's willing to transcend the person she's been all her life.

This was an interesting episode in the series, lots of politics and I adored the foxes.
Bitterblue is on a mission to a new land Torla and find out what some of it's secrets are. In a country with different rules and societal pressures and in that world is Lovisa Cavenda, the teenage daughter of a powerful Scholar and Industrialist, she wants to change the world and this might just be her chance. When her life and Bitterblue's become intertwined after Bitterblue is kidnapped, things get complicated, particularly when Bitterblue is actually assumed to be dead.

It's a complex story with messy politics and a different world with characters I really cared about, particularly Ad. ( )

I love this series and this book is beautifully written. As with most of the books, you wonder where the threads and bits will tie in and they neatly (or not) and there you are, wishing there was more. Not for any lack of completion but because of the delight of reading it. I feel she is one of the few authors who can do multiple views without throwing me out of the story-fairly rare (at least for me) ( )

In Winterkeep, there is a debate between Scholar and Industrialist parties over the legalization of zilfium, a valuable metal with dangerous environmental consequences.

Another vibrant stand-alone novel set in the Graceling universe.

Bitterblue and her advisors make a state visit to Winterkeep, a country on another continent that recently came into contact with the Graceling realms. There are unsolved mysteries, trade negotiations, espionage, and teen romance. (And more unpleasant fathers.) Told from many different characters' POV.

I read an excerpt as an ARC from the publisher. The chapter they gave me was not well-chosen - it was from Bitterblue's POV and re-introduced the world. After (re)reading the other books in the series, this excerpt BORED me. It killed my excitement for the book so much that I almost didn't read the novel when it because available from my public library. ( )
