Praise for The Queen’s Choice, book one in the Heirs of Chrior trilogy (#ua43731d6-a7fa-59c5-ae36-86f002b59105)

“Kluver has captured the complex and ever-shifting

emotions of a teenage girl and constructed

an engaging, densely plotted political thriller,

complete with a cliff-hanger ending that will

make readers eager for the sequel.”

—Booklist

“Rich details, emotionally deep characters,

and original plot elements will attract

new and old fans of the fae subgenre.”
