Kings Rising by C. S. Pacat

Kings Rising (Captive Prince Trilogy, #3)

by C. S. Pacat

The stunning conclusion of worldwide phenomenon—from the boldly original author of Captive Prince and Prince’s Gambit.

“I fell in love with the writing, the characters, [and] the story.”—V.E. Schwab, #1 New York Times bestselling author

His identity now revealed, Damen must face his master Prince Laurent as Damianos of Akielos, the man Laurent has sworn to kill.
 
On the brink of a momentous battle, the future of both their countries hangs in the balance. In the south, Kastor's forces are massing. In the north, the Regent's armies are mobilising for war. Damen's only hope of reclaiming his throne is to fight together with Laurent against their usurpers.
 
Forced into an uneasy alliance the two princes journey deep into Akielos, where they face their most dangerous opposition yet. But even if the fragile trust they have built survives the revelation of Damen’s identity—can it stand against the Regents final, deadly play for the throne?

That was beautiful. At first, this series wasn't something I thought I would be able to stomach; now I don't know how I went so long before reading it. The ending I was dreading turned into something I could only wish for, the twists and turns left me breathless, and the final chapter had me at the edge of my seat. This is by far, one of the best trilogies I have ever read.
