Once upon a time, Tess was Princess Contessa of Costenopolie. Then she learned she was really just a decoy princess, a target for would-be assassins. Her parents were killed as part of an audacious royal coup masterminded by the prince of a neighboring kingdom, and Tess was instrumental in restoring a semblance of order. That was then.

Her parents were killed as part of an audacious royal coup masterminded by the prince of a neighboring kingdom, and Tess was instrumental in restoring a semblance of order. That was then. This is now.

Now, her sister, the real Contessa of Costenopolie, sits on the throne, along with her new husband, a prince of Misdev. Tess acts as an advisor, lending the knowledge she picked up in her years as a princess, all the while trying to keep the royal couple from killing one another. What almost no one knows is that Tess has become a player, part of a mysterious game that spans across kingdoms, acting as the true power behind the throne. Now, under the tutelage of her mentor Kravenlow, she's exploring her new role, and learning to use the magical abilities she's gained as a result of exposure to a rare venom.

As the royal couple embark upon a honeymoon voyage meant both to reassure the populace that the throne is in good hands, and to give Queen Contessa time to settle into her new status, Tess goes along as chaperone. With them are Chancellor Kravenlow, the enigmatic Captain Jeck of Misdev (another player in the game), and Duncan, a charming card sharp who stands a very good chance of winning Tess' heart, if not her loyalty. All seems fairly stable (apart from the occasional royal squabble... and the Queen pushing her husband overboard) until they detour on a mission of mercy.

Now, hijacked by pirates, the royal couple held for ransom, and Duncan apparently defected to the enemy, the situation looks grim indeed. Can Tess once again escape captivity, survive the attack of a mythically deadly creature whose very bite is poisonous, outwit a band of cunning pirates, and work with the unlikeliest of allies to save the day? She'll be forced to rely on magical powers which could kill her, place her trust in two men of dubious loyalty and questionable goals, and push herself to the limits. Not for the first time, she'll be tempted to toss it all, however, and walk away. What's a princess-turned-player to do?

Second book completely undoes Tess's strong and independent/resourceful nature that was the reason she was likable in first book. For details, you'll have to be prepared for spoilers.

The end of the book Tessa becomes needy and whiny. Second book completely undoes Tess's strong and independent/resourceful nature that was the reason she was likable in first book. For details, you'll have to be prepared for spoilers.

Warning: this review contains major spoilers. Read at your own risk.

SO, this book frustrated me on multiple levels.

First of all, Tess spends half the book acting completely insane. Some of it is on purpose, and explained away - such as when she is on a raft trying to control the wind and loses it - but a lot of it is left ambiguous. Does the author realize how nuts Tessa sounds at certain points? Was it on purpose? I feel like after she is bitten by the punta, Tess never really regains her full sanity until what is practically the epilogue of the book - after confronting traitorous Duncan.

Which brings me to my second major beef: Duncan. Personally, I never thought Duncan was a good match for Tess. In the first book, I liked his amiable and easy-going personality, but despite liking him, he seemed a horrible choice for a romantic partner for Tess. They just don't fit. Tess is educated, cultured, intelligent, and a natural leader. Duncan hates bathing, is admittedly clever, but can't even read or write, and prefers a life of crime skulking in the shadows. How is this supposed to work? Tess is fundamentally honest. She would never happy in a life spent cheating other people, although she doesn't mind cheating at cards when it's a game to catch each other, and seems willing to overlook it in Duncan (although her repeated "he's not a thief!" would suggest she's not entirely over that, either). Duncan, on the other hand, demonstrates repeatedly that he is unwilling to turn honest and is constantly trying to convince Tess to join him in running away to a life of crime. Even before his major betrayal, it was clear Duncan would never give up looking for the next scam. Also, Tess is ambitious. She has aspirations to control an entire kingdom and pit herself against the sharpest minds in the world. She has an extremely well-developed sense of duty and responsibility - to her people, her sister, Kavenlow etc. Duncan again repeatedly demonstrates his desire to run off and not be beholden to anyone. Not to mention that Tess was raised as a princess, never wanting for anything, and Duncan was on the streets. People say opposites attract - and I believe that - but for a relationship to work you have to have SOME kind of common ground to start from, not to mention a united idea of which direction to go.

Not even getting into the fact that Tess never tells him she is a player.

So, suffice it to say that I was always in favor of Tess/Jeck, who I believe has far more in common with her. I also was not caught off guard by Duncan's betrayal. There were so many intimations of it throughout the book, I was well prepared. What I could not handle, however, was Tess's extremely poor handling of it. It's fine to be heartbroken when your first love breaks your heart. Crawl under the covers, have a good cry. It's not ok to repeat, literally three times a page, "he never loved me!"
Ok. We get it. We kinda got it when he ran off with the ransom and left you to die. STOP REPEATING IT. It got extremely irritating. I think part of the constant repetition was meant to be part of the whole wind-induced insanity thing, but it wasn't clear and there are far better ways to indicate that someone's becoming unhinged. Believe me, by this point I didn't need any convincing that Tess was losing it.

This kinda blends in with my third problem: I think the author is subconsciously sexist. I mean it. Feel totally free to disagree with me, but hear me out: Cook spends a lot of time building Tessa up to be a strong, independent and capable character. The entire first book, in fact. And she repeats several times how lucky Tess is to have the power and influence she does - or at least the opportunity for it. She represents Queens and Kings as equals as well, and Tessa complains about the sexism of sailors and their superstitions about women at sea. Overall, it seems that Cook is trying to come across as very egalitarian. I feel like all of this is undone and then some by this sequel.

First of all: Tess falling apart over Duncan's betrayal. Sure, Tess deserves a mourning period. She is totally allowed to feel grieved and stupid for falling for him. But completely falling apart? Failing to realize what Duncan was doing when he piled the ransom in a boat and said she'd never find him? I really didn't get how on earth Tess was supposed to miss THAT one - not unless it was part of the insanity kick. Because let's face it: who would think anything else with his monologue? And then getting all weak before Captain Rylan before turning into a downright melodramatic queen when Duncan fails to be her white knight? Where is her determination, resourcefulness, guts, etc that we have been told repeatedly she has? And even if you excuse this initial breakdown because of shock, why on earth doesn't she pull herself together afterwards? The author led me to believe Tess was independent and self-confident. To me, that type of person would be sad, yeah, but they would accept the fact that they'd been duped - that their partner never really cared for them, maybe wasn't capable of it - and then either a) forget about it and move on or b) plot a sneaky revenge. It might take a while to really and truly get over it, but they wouldn't completely fall apart and spend the rest of the book whining "he never loved me!" And I really did cringe at how needy and weak Tess seemed when she faced Duncan. I expected a bit more self-respect (or maybe pride is a better word). Anyways, her behavior over the entire affair meant that when she worried that Jeck and others saw her as a silly women, I felt that they would be entirely justified because that was indeed what she had proven to be. When it came down to the wire, she failed to measure up under pressure. Which was a real contrast from the first book.

Also, the constant comments of "silly women" or - this one really got me - "silly feminine suspicion" really are sexist. They imply that the only reason Tess is not silly or foolish is because she's different from most women - that the default state of being for the feminine gender is silly and foolish and it is something Tessa must rise above. I'm pretty sure the author doesn't realize the underlying assumptions in these statements, but they really do come across in Tessa's attitude to most women besides her mother and sister. And the whole "feminine suspicion" thing? EXCUSE ME? Since when is suspicion a general characteristic of women? Since when is being suspicious feminine?? As if women are naturally prone to being suspicious of their significant others - which implies a deep-seated insecurity about their own worth, implying that all women are insecure. Think about it. It really is offensive.

And thus, my issues are aired.

I will admit that the clever exchanging of Costenopolie and Misdev to resolve the whole Jeck-needs-to-teach-Tessa thing was clever. So I liked the end. And ultimately, I did like Tessa's punishment for Duncan. I felt it very fitting and suitably generous for Tess.(less)

Damn it, I think I have to give this book five stars. Not that it was perfect, but it is withstanding the "stick-in-my-head" test -- meaning a few days out I'm still thinking about the characters and reluctant to leave them for the next book.

Not that it was perfect, but it is withstanding the "stick-in-my-head" test -- meaning a few days out I'm still thinking about the characters and reluctant to leave them for the next book.

The Princess at Sea is a follow-up to the Decoy Princess and I liked even better. This book was a bit darker and more contemplative. In the Decoy Princess, Tess finds out that she is not the real princess (that should not be much of a spoiler given the title)and after escaping a palace take-over, she goes off to find the real princess and help her reclaim the thrown.

Now ***SPOILERS*** if you haven't read the first book. Along the way Tess learns that she is an apprentice to a player -- a master in a secret society of magically enhanced manipulators who are the true rulers (behind the crowns). In the Princess at Sea, Tess goes off on a honeymoon voyage with the princess and her new husband. When there ship is boarded and the royals are taken adventure ensues.

What I didn't like about this book is that after setting up a unique and interesting fantasy idea --the players-- they then really have nothing to do with this book at all. Instead Tess and her player friends are duped and manipulated along with everyone else and by actors who have nothing to do with the players. It's hard to see what the point of the system is -- we aren't even told what the 6 rules of the game are. Missed opportunity here...

But (obviously) I did like a lot. The secondary characters are well-portrayed with agendas and reactions that are explored sympathetically (even though this aspect is somewhat impeded by the first person POV). The plot was tight with the loose ends being tied up satisfactorily. I really like Tess as a character -- she is tough and brave, but she gets scared and sad and feels hopeless and cries when it makes sense. She has her quirks and foibles too. A pet peeve of mine is when the heroine keeps on developing more and more incredible magical powers for no apparent reason other than becoming the badest assiest thing eva (I call this "the Anita Blake syndrome" or "Mary Sue ex machina"). I have to admit that Tess bordered on the edges, but for me it worked here. There was real, non-forced reason for her magic levels to suddenly change and she had to work to adapt both physically and mentally, especially in terms of what it would imply for her future (very angstily done, I must say).

But why I want to give this book a five star is that in some ways it was an exploration of love. Questions raised: What is love? Does love make you stronger (giving you determination and selflessness) or weaker (areas where you are blind or can be exploited)? We are given examples of both. What is the relationship between duty and love? When should you stay faithful versus let go when situates are outside your control? Is there an honor to letting go and can this be an act of love? Can your love be true even if you weren't loved in return? I like how the characters don't shy away from probing their own motivations. For instance (view spoiler). Not all of these questions are answered and wrapped in a neat little package with a shiny bow. Rather they are poked at by the characters trying to make sense of their own situations.

The main thing I really wish is that there was a third book to the series, explaining the game more and letting Tess finally hook up with her guy. (As in a true, honest to goodness, make it past 3rd, all the way home, sex scene. I guess that's the problem with YA-ish books -- you have to keep them PG 13 at least. But I'm not talking throbbing loins here, just a little tasteful sex, that's all. Just the tip. Uhm... Anyway...) In any case, this was a very enjoyable read. I think that it would appeal to fans of Sherwood Smith (Crown Duel), Sharon Shinn (Summers at Castle Auburn) and actually fans of the Hunger Games (though the setting/plot are completely different, the tone is somehow similar IMO.) Maybe when Dawn Cook gets done being Kim Harrison and writing her witchy uban fantasies, we can hope for some more!(less)

Compared to Decoy Princess, this book is unfortunately inferior.

She tries to keep her head above water but eventually there isn't even the pretense that she has control of anything.

I think I like this book more than the first, as Tess becomes a more complex character.

In The Decoy Princess, all of the action takes place quickly. Tess discovers that her entire life has been a lie, and has to outwit and outfight trained soldiers in order to save her kingdom from a deranged younger son. Before she is even able to process her identity, she is told about the world of "players" and "pieces", the true powers behind the throne, and her actual importance as Kavenlow's apprentice.

About 80 pages in, I decided this one was more dire and desperate than the first one, so I started skimming towards the end. I did not enjoy it as much as the first one; it's almost like the author felt she had to out do the drama of the first one. It just ended up feeling flat out depressing, with way too many antagonists, not enough enjoyable characters.

There was a major twist towards the end. I enjoyed the last 2 chapters.

The context of the protagonist’s powers is cool but really contrived. Her slowly learning about them in the first one makes it sort of in the background and intrigues, but when it’s front and center in the second one I got annoyed easily at the stupidity. Also, characters change personalities to fit the plot in the sequel and there are some effed up messages about love.

The love triangle was sweet and innocent to the end, though predictable from the start. The magic in the world was interesting enough, though some of it was probably better explained in beginning novels.

Which leads down to a big kind of surprise. I was amazed at how much I like it. Usually I stick to paranormal but because Kim Harrison is one of my favorite authors I had to check out. This one does not disappoint. Awesomely written leaving you hankering form more. Definite Recommendation.
