Book
Blurb:
“One
girl must make a name for herself--or die trying --in this royal fantasy where
an unknown peasant becomes the ultimate ruler. But how long can she keep the
crown if everyone wants her dead? Perfect for fans of Furyborn, Red Queen, and
Everless.
Everyone
expected the king's daughter would inherit the throne. No one expected me.
It
shouldn't even be possible. I'm Nameless, a class of citizens so disrespected,
we don't even get names. Heck, dozens of us have been going missing for months
and no one seems to care.
But
there's no denying the tattoo emblazoned on my arm. I am queen. In a palace
where the corridors are more dangerous the streets, though, how could I
possibly rule? And what will become of the Nameless if I don't?”
Review:
Our
main character, who goes by ‘Coin,’ is truly a Nameless Queen; the three
classes of people in Rebecca McLaughlin’s fantasy novel are Royals, Legals, and
the Nameless. Upon the death of the
current ruler, she inherits a magical tattoo which puts her in a dangerous
position. As one of the Nameless, she
has no rights, no job, no possessions, and no family. Being identified as the next ruler, she is
the envy and target of every Royal who believes the crown should have gone to someone
else, and even those who want the crown for themselves.
This
is a clean YA fantasy with a small amount of magic. Available on January 7, 2020.
I voluntarily read a Review Copy of this book. All opinions stated are solely my own and no
one else’s. #NamelessQueen #NetGalley
