Annie 's Reviews > The Heretic Royal

I don’t know what it is about G.A. Aiken, but I always get excited when a new book of hers is released. I don’t read too much Fantasy these days, but I always make room for Aiken.

What I love about her Fantasy Romances is that there’s an uneven focus on the romance and the Fantasy element. Most authors would focus on the romance and while it is still very prominent and passion, I feel like Aiken has the most fun creating this unique world and building on it with each book. The details are amazing and there’s lots of worldbuilding and interconnecting storylines. I find it very enjoyable to read.

So when you have a great base like that, anything else that you do on top of it is bound to make it better. I believe that’s the case with the romance. I enjoyed Ainsley and Gruffyn a lot. If you’re a fan of dragons, then you definitely don’t want to miss out on this series. There’s a big focus on the women in this series, so the character development is well done.

While sometimes a little violent and over-the-top, Aiken has definitely mastered her own style. It’s a style that I’ve come to love because there’s no other author that writes like her. For some hilarious dragon fun, you don’t want to miss this!
