Am I the only one who laughs out loud throughout the first two chapters of The King of Attolia? I know poor, dear Costis is at the worst moment of his entire life...but it's all so FUNNY. At first glance, Costis seems so serious, but he has a sense of humor about everything, even when he's facing certain death (or worse). I love reading from his point of view, and I love the way it's written.
#so many good moments#so many things I find hilarious#except for the hunting dogs#the hunting dogs were NOT a joke#the whole scene has such climactic drama and its own arc#including that chapter break at exactly the right moment#also - I'm not counting the last page or two as part of the scene and part of the humor#the little moment between the king and queen is just pure sweetness#queen's thief#the queen's thief#the queen's thief series#queen's thief series#qt#tqt#the king of attolia#megan whalen turner#books#reading#favorite books#favorite authors#costis#poor costis
