- Kate Avery Ellison decided she wanted to be an author when she was five years old, and with hard work, determination, and the support of loved ones along the way, her dreams of telling stories for a living came true in 2011 with her first novel, The Curse Girl, and continued with her Amazon bestselling series The Frost Chronicles and numerous other fantasy and science fiction novels. She loves putting a dash of mystery in everything she writes, an ode to her childhood spent reading Nancy Drew, Agatha Christie, and Sherlock Holmes, and she can't resist adding a good twist in the story wherever she can.Kate wishes she could live in a place where it's always October, but until that's possible, she makes her home in humid Atlanta with her husband, son, and two spoiled cats. When she isn't dreaming up her next novel or holed up writing it down, Kate can be found reading on her Kindle, building intricate train track configurations with her toddler, and playing board games with her husband and friends.

A Bed of Blades (The Kingmakers' War, #2) par Kate Avery Ellison
3.5
4.5 stars. This is the best one yet. Wish I hadn't read it until the next one was ready because I'm going to be upset until then! Characters were much more real/developed in this book I felt. Great story!
Series Info/Source: This is the 4th book in the Spellwood Academy series. I borrowed a copy of this book through Kindle Unlimited.
Thoughts: This book picks up right where the last book left off and was a bit disappointing. Kyra is upset that Lucien has left and spends the first portion of the book moping around. Then she is put in charge of prepping for the Wintertide Ball (which oddly she ends up not really doing anything for). After that she falls down the well and then ends up stuck in the labyrinth with Tryst (Lucien’s best friend). I really enjoyed this part of the book; however, right after that things end on a total cliffhanger which was annoying.
So, yeah...not a huge fan of this one. The first part was slow and I kind of wanted to smack Kyra, she was just mopey and depressed about a boy she hasn’t known all that long. The second portion was better; I enjoyed getting to know Tryst better and loved their adventures in the labyrinth. However, then the whole book just abruptly stops at a huge cliffhanger...it basically stopped mid-chapter with no decent ending.
My Summary (3/5): Overall this was a weak installment in this series. I have been going back and forth about this series, there are some things I really like about it (fae, magic, revelations around Kyra’s past) and some things I don’t like (inconsistent pacing, lack of plot, cliffhanger endings). At this point I don’t plan on continuing with the series. However, if I find myself wondering about what happens in the next book in the future, I might pick it up again. It’s an easy, quick read and I have enjoyed previous books well enough.… (plus d'informations)
