Sinopse

Welcome back to the intoxicating and magical fairyland! But be careful, for danger lurks just around the corner... Join The Wicked King for the intriguing and bloody sequel to the bestselling novel, The Cruel Prince, winner of the 2019 Goodread Choice Awards.

You need to be strong enough to strike and strike again without getting tired.

It will hurt. But pain makes you stronger.

To survive in the Faerie Kingdom, Jude Duarte had to learn many lessons. The most important of these came from her stepfather: power is much easier to acquire than to maintain. She thought that by tricking Cardan into swearing obedience to her for a year and a day, her life would become easier.

Now, Cardan is the High King. Jude is the hand behind the throne. Five months have passed, and she's managed nothing more than to issue a few banal orders to the king. If she wants to keep the throne for her brother, Jude will need to think, and quickly, of a plan to make Cardan bow to her for longer. But having any influence over the High King of Elfhame seems an impossible task, especially when he does everything in his power to humiliate and harm her, even as his fascination with the human girl remains intact.

As if that weren't enough, the waves threaten to engulf the islands of Elfhame, and Jude receives a warning: someone has betrayed him. But who? Jude must fight to save his own life and the lives of those he loves, while also battling his conflicting feelings for Cardan. In an immortal world, a year and a day are nothing...
