We also get to meet Keg’s family, who are Slade’s advisors and help run the Fourth Kingdom.Īuren is unconscious for a good beginning portion of the book, mainly due to using so much of her powers during the ending of Gleam. Also, after Slade reverses his rot from Auren, a piece gets left behind that he is unable to remove (not a major issue, but it does play a factor at the end of the book). And Ryatt (Slade’s brother) gets to stop being Fake Rip and is promoted to be the commander of the army, so Slade doesn’t have to keep doing two roles (King and Commander). Rissa and Polly have a major falling out over Rissa taking Polly out of the Fifth Kingdom, as Polly did not want to stop being a saddle like Rissa did. Rissa and Osrik have an attraction for one another that starts to develop while Rissa is with the army on the way back to the Fourth Kingdom.
There are more elements that happen, but considering they weren’t major parts of the book, I’m going to gloss over them real quick. I’ll break down some of the more heavy plot items. The majority of which belong to Auren or Slade.Ī lot happens in this book. This book alternates between Auren’s, Slade’s, Queen Malina’s, Rissa’s, Osrik’s, and Queen Kaila’s POVs. Trigger Warning: Past emotional and physical trauma, violence, adult language, and explicit romance.
So I will fight for him and he will kill for me, and if we need to become the villains, then so be it.īecause so long as I live in this world, I won’t be used again. Good thing I have a different king in my corner.īut even with the dark threat of Slade Ravinger, the other monarchs are coming for me. That’s the thing when you turn against a king-everyone else turns against you. Because my wings may have been clipped, but I am not in a cage, and I’m finally free to fly from the frozen kingdoms I’ve been kept in. Like a phoenix caught fire, I will need to rise from the ashes and learn to wield my own power. A means to get to where he wanted to go, and I paved that path in gold.” Of course, we know that’s not true but we get to see how this narrative plays out in Glow. Stating that Auren can steal powers and seduced Slade in an attempt to steal his as well, all so the other kingdoms could appear more powerful. However, in their attempt to flee the palace, the other kingdoms decide to come up with their own narrative of what happened. Slade has escaped the Fifth Kingdom’s palace with her after temporarily rotting her to save her life. Auren has killed King Midas and is no longer under his control. It takes place immediately following the events of Gleam, so spoiler warning for that book. Glow is the fourth installment in the reimaging of the King Midas myth series called The Plated Prisoner.
