Mini Quick Review: The Orchid Throne

The Orchid Throne The Orchid Throne by Jeffe Kennedy
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I'm not totally convinced that this wasn't written just to describe Queen Euthalia's outfits and make-up. 

A baddie, a wizard, an enslaved prince, and a virgin queen. 
Never see the baddie but know he conquered all the lands twenty years ago. 
Enslaved prince building his rebellion and grudgingly following his wizard's prophecy. 
Some worldbuilding but mostly definitely first in a trilogy skimping to stretch out. 
Virgin queen and enslaved prince have their thing. 

Basically, meets and greets story that felt YA but characters late twenties and some sex added in to jazz it up for adults.
