| I've been feasting on history lately, with this the latest course. At 817 pages, this book isn't for everyone, but having read Chernow's Hamilton, Vidal's Burr, Gordon-Reed's The Hemingses of Monticello, Ambrose's Undaunted Courage, I chose to fill i ...more | |

“So here's the truth - I love you. I love everything about you – the way you stick up for people even when it costs you. The way you keep trying to do the right thing even when you're not exactly sure what the right thing is. I love how you put words together. You're as skilled with words as any knife fighter with a blade. You can put an enemy down on his back, or you can raise people up so they find what's best in themselves. You've changed my life. You've given me the words I need to become whatever I want.
I love how you talk to lytlings. You don't talk down to them. You respect them, and anybody can tell you're actually interested in what they have to say.
I love the way you ride a horse – how you stick there like an upland thistle, whooping like a Demonai. I love the way you throw back your head and stomp your feet when you dance. I love how you go after what you want – whether it's kisses or a queendom.
I love your skin, like copper dusted over with gold. And your eyes – they're the color of a forest lake shaded by evergreens. One of the secret places that only the Demonai know about.
I love the scent of you – when you've been out in the fresh air, and that perfume you put behind your ears sometimes.
Believe it or not, I even love your road smell – of sweat and horses and leather and wool.
I want to breathe you in for the rest of my life.”
― The Crimson Crown

I have to read all your books, I still need to get to the last two books of the Heir series. Am I the only one hoping for the Heir series to be made into movies. Now that Harry Potter is over I think its time to start looking at other series for movies.

So I just finished The Heir Chronicles and I absolutely loved them. Seriously, one of the best series I've ever read. I was just wondering if maybe there would be a bit more to that series or if there would be a different story in that world. I think I'll try The Demon King though.

Since your books have magical elements, I really sincerely hope you will resurrect Han Alister! I don't know how, but I hope you will. My other favorite author J.K Rowling has killed many characters, and I could not cope with her killing certain characters, but Han Alister is different. I literally sobbed after page 26 of Flamecaster. :( :( :( :(
Thanks so much for accepting my friendship request here on Goodreads!
Thanks so much for accepting my friendship request Cinda. I love your Heir Chronicles and am keen to read the Seven Realms series too. It is great to see you like Code Name Verity as much as I do too. Hope you have a brilliant holiday season and wish you all that is good for 2015 from Judith xxx

Just wanted to say that I love the Seven Realms series and I just wanted to know when The Crimson Crown will be out in paperback format?
Hello! I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading the Seven Realms series! Your books are definitely one of my favorites. I'll be reading the Heir Chronicles which I'm pretty sure would be great too. Thank you!
Thank you for giving this series such a beautiful and satisfying ending. I have spent the most wonderful day lost in Raisa and Han's world.
Your books have changed my life! It's hard to find great fantasy books nowadays and yours are my favourites! Don't stop writing because I'll always be there waiting for them to come out. Always.
Hello Mrs. Chima. I must say, I am an avid reader of your novels, and do quite enjoy the experience that each gives me. Right now, I am anxiously awaiting to get a hold of the second Realms book, for a long waitng list at my public library prevents me from reading it. Thank you so very much, and I really loved the Heir novels. Simply fantastic!

Hey Cinda...Thanks for accepting my friendship.
Thanks for advertising here on Goodreads! I'd much rather see more book reviews on here than some of the unrelated ads that normally come up. So thank you for supporting this awesome site! I'll definitely buy your book the next time I'm at a bookstore!

Thank you, thank you thank you--good to hear this early feedback on EQ! Cinda
OMG! Yay for coming to Houston! I was the first in the tour for Exiled Queen and I just finished it. I have to say WOW! I absolutely adored it! I'm such a fan of that series (I haven't read Heir Chronicles yet though) I need book three NOW!! :)Love your writing and originality and your excellently plotted story. I'm stunned and breathless. I want to read it over and over again!
Best,
Sab
