"Pearson masterfully controls all elements of her story. There are surprises up until the last. Anticipation for the next volume will start as soon as this one is put down."
--Booklist, starred review "Fans of Pearson’s first book in “The Remnant Chronicles” won’t be disappointed. A heart-pounding sequel that fantasy fans will appreciate." --School Library Journal "Packs a wallop . . . solid and absorbing high fantasy, with a sudden breathless hook to the next installment." --Kirkus "The world-building begins to come into sharper focus in this volume . . . pointing toward a climax that promises to fuse the political with the personal, resolving the fates not only of all these players but also of their respective kingdoms. If Pearson can sustain the romance, mystery, and suspense, then the Remnant Chronicles will stand strong among great fantasy series" --Horn Book "Packed with twists and turns, and the intrigues and games played for survival makes for a fast paced book . . . a fantastic read and I can't wait for the next book!!" --Books Minority "One hell of a thrill ride. I am already dying for the next book!" --Starry-Eyed Jen, a review in gifs "This book is made of crack and win and badassery and magic and lush writing and LIA. A sassy, whip-smart boss of a princess and I want to be her when I grow up. I devoured this book. I loved it hardcore." --Writer of Wrongs |
"With Lia and Rafe as prisoners in a land that takes no prisoners, their lives can become forfeit with a single misstep. .Do not be surprised if it commands a strong adult readership along with popularity among teens. With action, world-building, and romance all done to perfection, this series has it all."
--Sean Rapacki, VOYA "I about died reading this book. It was everything I wanted it to be plus so much more. I wasn't sure how she was to exceed the first book but have no fear, she does it." --Jessica Reigle, "High stakes action . . . She's a bad ass heroine, and it's an absolute treat to watch her grieve and grow." --Christina Reads YA "The world building is beautiful A book that makes you think . . . I HIGHLY recommend this series." --Bang Bang Book Blog "I loved her backbone. If you love a fantasy story with a heroine that only grows stronger throughout the books, then you should start this series!" --Bibliophilia "The Heart of Betrayal is an epic high fantasy that you don’t want to miss. I had really high expectations for this and luckily it did not disappoint. " --Dark Faerie Tales "The Heart of Betrayal’ is filled with political intrigue, mystical forces and unending devotion and is an amazing fantasy novel that will leave you desperate for more. Mary E. Pearson is a master story-teller and I cannot wait to see where Lia’s story takes us next." --What Sarah Read |
