So far I have read every book in the Kingdom series and you would think that after so many books, the stories would get repetitive and lack creativity and originality. Well, that couldn't be farther from the truth. "The Huntsman's Prey" is creative, original, breath-taking beautiful, full of fantasy and surprises and full of crazy. It is absolutely captivating. It is even more twisted than the other books in the series, but what would you expect from a book about the Hatter's daughter in Wonderland.Just like the other books in the series, this one makes me want to move to Kingdom and to be part of this heart-meltingly magical world. A world in which nothing is impossible and fairy-tales are reality. But not all fairy-tales are just sunshine and rainbows.This story is about Chrysa, Hatter's and Alice's grown-up daughter who has been cursed at birth and seems to go madder by the minute. Consumed by darkness, her loved ones not only fear for her sanity but for her life as she is on a path of destruction.And the only one that might be able to stop and her is the Queen's huntsman, Aeric. Reluctant to follow Dannika's plea to help, he ends up going to Wonderland in order to capture Chrysa. But no trip to Wonderland is straight-forward or easy. There is nothing linear or logical about it and it definitely isn't boring. Instead there are adventures, illusions, traps and madness around every corner.Aeric is lucky to have Lissa guide him through the madness, willing to help him capture Chryssa. Being a forest guardian she knows Wonderland like the back of her hand. During their travels, she quickly becomes attracted to him despite his gruff and distant demeanor. And he too can't stay immune to Lissa's innocent and wild charms. As the two grow closer, the darkness is still lurking and ready to destroy them. There are many challenges in their way and they have to remember that things might not be what they seem in Wonderland. Can they trust their feelings or is Wonderland playing tricks on them? And can their connection withstand the tests of Wonderland?Trust me, it is worth finding out for yourself and be transported into a whole different world - full of magic, fantasy, sweetness, love and sexual tension.5 mad-as-the-Hatter stars.
