Review of The Obsidian Tower by Melissa Caruso
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. The Obsidian Tower was easily one of my most anticipated books of this year after reading Melissa Caruso’s first trilogy, Swords and Fire (The Tethered Mage, The Defiant Heir, The Unbound Empire), and I loved it as well.

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. “They called me the Bitch Queen, the she-wolf, because I murdered a man and exiled my king the night before they crowned me.” Thus opens The Wolf of Oren-Yaro, the first installment in K.
