OF BLOOD AND ROSES by K. A. Wynter

"You are a Rose Heir, whether you inherit my crown or not. Roses are never just wives."

Arresting and alluring, KatWynter's work is a bouquet-mix of interesting characters, fascinating fantasy world, and a tension-wrought premise. There's so much in just the first couple of chapters. First, can I gush about the name Rosailles? What a delightful and brilliant marriage of words to convey not only something about the character and its world, but also grounding it to the reality we know and love.

You are immensely adept at crafting character dynamics — from Ophelia's playful banter with her brother, to her tense and layered interactions with her mother. The scenes are organic, the characters alive.

The unveiling of your world and its histories, and its magics and politics, is deftly done. We are kept informed just enough, tantalised just enough, to be tempted by more.

Like following after a trail of rose petals, follow after Of Blood and Roses for a story you won't regret!
