Long May She Reign tells the story of Freya, a girl who would rather conduct experiments in her laboratory than socialize with members of the court.

As twenty-third in line to the throne, she can get away with shirking her responsibilities at court. But when the king and most of the court are assassinated at a party one night, Freya is suddenly pushed into the spotlight. Now queen, Freya must determine whom she can truly trust, as she solves the mystery of who orchestrated the assassination, and fights for the right to rule her country.

This young adult book is a stand-alone, and is perfect for anyone who loves fantasy, but is tired of reading series that seem to have no end. Unlike many other fantasy novels, Long May She Reign is refreshingly fast-paced. It is a quick read that won’t disappoint.
