6/29/2023 0 Comments Four Dead Queens by Astrid ScholteAt the auction however, things get a little dicey as the messenger has turned up presumably to buy back the comm case and deliver his message. We know he was involved in an accident before Kera joined Mackiel and that Kera is to blame for it in some way, but we don’t get much more than that. Keralie “Kera” is the best dipper employed by Mackiel, her childhood friend and when she steals a comm case from a messenger she knows she is going to get a good payday offsetting the guilt she feels after hearing her father is dying. As we are introduced to our protagonist, Keralie, a talented thief I became aware this book was told from multiple perspective which is a love/hate thing for me. There is Archia which value agriculture and is ruled by Iris, Eonia which values technology and is ruled by Corra, Toria values intelligence and is ruled by Marguerite and finally, Ludia value pleasure and is ruled by Stessa. We learn that the world, Quadara, is split into four segments, each rule by a different Queen and values different things. Review: I have read The Vanishing Deep by Astrid Scholte and it was one of my favourite books the year I read it, so I finally decided it was time to pick up her first book, Four Dead Queens but I didn’t know anything about it going into it.
