The King's Throne: The Elysian Blade of Truth is the kind of novel that manages to be equal parts a compelling drama and an exciting action/adventure story. The novel has a smooth and beguiling plot that draws you into this world of magic, royalty, far reaching plots and quests that test the characters in intricate ways. This is a story that winds you up and delivers a walloping punch of emotionally charged drama and danger as Nnelthu Leas sows the seeds of unrest, revenge and destruction in the kingdom of Aldamanis. Ms. Mathews skillfully weaves her story with a deft hand, creating a lush and evocative story that had me eager to keep reading as the plot unfolded and the characters were each set on a quest that would define them and their lives. Altogether, this was an engaging fantasy novel that proved to be entertaining and left me wanting to delve deeper into the King's Throne series.
