    Hello RATers!

    The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner — 279 pages
    This is the second time I read this book, I read it for the first time two years ago and I read it again this week in preparation of reading the recently published fourth book for the first time. This book brought the same reaction that it did the first time, I like it but most of the political stuff goes over my head. I am fond of the closing few lines/paragraphs.

    The King of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner — 388 pages
    This is also a re-read. This book is my favorite out of the Queen’s Thief series because it possess the chapter with the assassination attempt and the chapter that follows it. I love those scenes. In fact the reason I even like the series could be based on the fact that the series contains those two chapters. :)

    A Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner — 324 pages
    This is the book that I hadn’t previously read. This one was good but I am no politician so it fell beyond my scope and relationships between the kings and queens saddened me. I did however enjoy the part were “Bunny” was a fieldworker and hung out with his co-fieldworkers.

    Lord Sunday, by Garth Nix: 320 pages.

    The seventh and final book in the Keys to the Kingdom series. I was, however, somewhat disappointed with the ending. It was a tough story to wrap up, but still.
