Kingdom of Ruses

Ruses of Lenore, Book 1

By: Kate Stradling

Narrated by: Lillian Rachel

Viola Moreland’s life is a well-orchestrated lie. For generations her family has fabricated the existence of the Eternal Prince, a mysterious and powerful protector who watches over the small kingdom of Lenore.

This practiced deception cracks, however, when a nameless stranger stumbles across the truth and promptly assumes the Prince’s identity. Unable to produce the genuine figurehead, the Moreland family—and Viola in particular—must cater to the impostor’s whims or risk having the web of carefully constructed ruses crumble to pieces.

Of course, as with any good lie, nothing really is as it seems. Contrary to Viola’s desires, this false Prince with his cryptic agenda may well be the only thing that stands between the true magic of Lenore and certain destruction.

I love this series! So glad it’s coming audio!

One of my favorite narrators! Lillian takes nothing away from this story, but adds so much life to an already wonderful story!

10/10 recommend. I cannot wait for the next two in the series to come out.
