This one didn't work as well for me as Saxton's previous, for some reason. I couldn't get into the story very well and found it a bit plodding. Ah well. ( )

After the king dies, only his daughter is left to succeed him. But Islandia has never had a queen rule over it before. The new, young, willful queen has quite a job ahead of her. The territory of Winder has officially seceded from the country and enemies threaten to invade from all sides, not to mention the assassination attempts. And the only way to survive is with Winder's, and it's king Tor's, help...

This is the second book about Islandia Mark Saxton wrote after helping edit and publish Islandia. The first book was The Islar and the final book is Havoc in Islandia.

I liked this one much better than The Islar. It's still not as good as Islandia, of course!
