Prince Freya, Vol. 4 (Prince Freya, #4)

by Keiko Ishihara

To save her kingdom, a simple village girl must live a royal lie.

The powerful kingdom of Sigurd has slowly been conquering all the lands that share its borders, and now it has turned its voracious attention to the small, resource-rich Tyr. Tyr cannot hope to match Sigurd in strength, so in order to survive, it must rely on the intelligence, skill and cunning of its prince and his loyal knights. But should their prince fall, so too shall Tyr…

The unexpected arrival of horned warriors at Fort Leren is all that saves the Tyrish troops from the Sigurdian seige. But the Kelds have no interest in joining forces with Tyr—they only intervened to cause pain to their old foe. While it is a disappointing decision, it opens Freya’s eyes to other paths of resistance. Tyr might have no allies, but Sigurd has many enemies!

Reviews

I received a copy of this for review from Viz Media and Netgalley. All opinions are my own.

*sigh* This series is so good! This volume is a little shorter than the previous three, but still manages to cover a lot of ground and hit you right in the heart.

This picks up right after Vol.3, so the castle is still under siege and they are in a critical moment when mysterious reinforcements arrive with someone unexpected. Freya's growth has been fantastic and I love just how much she is learning about her own strength and what it means to be a pillar for so many. She is so adorable and I love how infectious her joy is, but I also love just how opposite this is to the ruse she must continue as the prince.

The love triangle is one that I am surprisingly enthralled with now. I wasn't quite sure on it to be completely honest, as it usually fairly frustrating, but even with the fact that I have a favorite I'm loving the differences between the two and how they offer support.
