Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes

Thursday 4 February 2016


War brought them together. Love will tear them apart.

There is no way I would take a look at this cover and this title and I would not have picked up to read this book. Oh, this is me all over! Aside from the amazing cover though this book was everything I expected and more. I just could not put it down!

“Love is stronger than anger. Love is stronger than hate - stronger than anything.” 


There are a number of characters that play a big part in this book, but the main ones are: Cleo, Theon, Lucia, Magnus and Jonas. Some of them are heirs to the throne in different kingdoms, others are rebels and others are sorcerers. Quite a bunch! War, love and fate will bring them together and change their lives forever!

"And believe in magic... always."


The amazing thing with this book is that while you're reading it you can't help but wonder who the main two characters are? Because it so beautifully talks about 3 different stories in 3 different kingdoms and how they come to affect each other's lives and have their fates intertwined.

The writing style was so good that it made reading through this book effortless, while you are learning about new worlds and ideas, and you get acquainted and connect with all the new characters. With a fast paced plot that thickens the more you get into the book.

I really liked every single character in this book! (.... well apart from Aron - he was too annoyingly selfish for my liking!) Even the bad boys, the cunning witches and the mean Kings! But if you know me at all, you'll know that I've rooted for the bad boy Magnus from page one! Oh, my Magnus! :)

"Strength. Faith. Wisdom."


There is violence, murders, secret alliances, deception and betrayals, greed, magic and love. All these combined create an amazing story with very strong characters and incredible feels throughout the book. It is amazing to see how fate can bring some people together. 

“Magic will find those with pure hearts, even when all seems lost.” 


Off to book #2 now! I just know that this will be one of my all time favourite book series, ever!
