Publisher's Summary:
The subtle victories of summer have faded beneath a winter of Northern occupation. King Roderran's invasion plans have ripened. His soldiers muster the Pevanese into their ranks, churn fallow fields into mud, and turn the region into an armed camp. Come spring, there will be war.
The King's arrival launches a flurry of preparations that sets the already turbulent city on edge. Prince Donari must contend with rumors of assassination, the disrespect of his liege-lord cousin, and the manipulations of the Lord Prelate Byrnard Casan. Trapped between fealty and treason, Donari faces impossible decisions. He must save his city and those closest to him. Somehow.
The coming storm will test the poets of Pevana in ways none of them could have foreseen. Poetry will not win this time - swords and spears will have their day - but Donari and Eleni, Devyn and Talyior must keep their faith in words to walk the tenuous paths between loyalty and betrayal, freedom and servitude, hope and despair.

Members Reviews:
Very satisfying sequel!
I absolutely hate being disappointed by sequels, and thankfully, "King's Gambit" doesn't make me go there! It seamlessly picks up where "The Poets of Pevana" leaves off, and it pulled me right in.
I'm not going to re-tell the story in this review, and I don't want to give any spoilers, so I'll just say that I liked it: the characters, the setting, the storyline. And the poetry...oh my goodness...it's hard to describe the powerful effect of the poetry in this book. It flows so naturally from the poets, and I really appreciate that the poems don't stop and scream, "Creative moment here, look at me, look at me!" Instead, the poetry is very authentic as it ties the events and emotions together and gives the book its heart. Very well done, and I'm looking forward to book #3 in the series!

Absorbing and fun!
Read "The Poets of Pevana" first, as this is the sequel. The "good versus evil" continues, with descriptions that colorfully created the action in my mind. "King's Gambit" has a nice pace to it and is hard to set aside. It's absorbing and fun! I'm hoping there's an equally compelling next book!

Amazing
