Waiting on Wednesday (#237): The Traitor Prince by C.J. Redwine


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


This week, I'm featuring:


The Traitor Prince by C.J. Redwine
Book Three of the Ravenspire series
Publisher: Balzer + Bray
Publication Date: February 13, 2018

Summary (from Goodreads):

Javan Najafai, the crown prince of Akram, has spent the last ten years at school, far away from his kingdom. He’s been eagerly awaiting his return home to his ailing father, but his journey there goes dangerously wrong. A mysterious imposter has taken his place—and no one will believe Javan is the true prince. 

After barely escaping the imposter’s hitmen, Javan is thrown in the most dangerous prison in his kingdom—Maqbara. The only way to gain an audience with the king and reveal the truth is to fight his way out in the prison’s yearly tournament, which pits inmates against a coterie of the deadliest creatures in the world. 

The one person who can help him is Sajda, a strong and secretive girl who has been enslaved by Maqbara’s warden since she was a child. Working with Sajda might be the only way Javan can escape alive—but she’s hiding something. 

Together, Javan and Sajda will have to outwit the dangerous warden, outfight the hundreds of deadly creatures, and outlast the murderous prisoners intent on killing Javan before he can win—in order to fight for their freedom, and take down the imposter once and for all. 




So far I've enjoyed all of Redwine's published books! This series is great for many reasons, but especially so because the books are companion novels. :D

  4. Unfortunately I didn't end up enjoying Redwine's last book as much I'd wanted to, but you've reminded me that I never got around to finishing her first series, which I thoroughly enjoyed! I hope you end up enjoying this one too Alyssa! Great pick! :)
