A King’s Radiance by L.R. Schultz follows the tale of three siblings who must each overcome their own struggles and strife in a battle for power in Zapour. Isha is taken prisoner and paraded around for having purple eyes, which are known to be the eyes of a mystic. This causes conflict which leads to Riaz running away and forming a faction of his own to take revenge for his sister’s kidnapping while Dazen struggles to maintain the balance of power within Trost. Can the three siblings manage to save themselves and each other amidst these troubling times or will other forces bring them to their knees?

A King’s Radiance by L.R. Schultz is an absolute masterpiece. This book was so well written, integrating the many perspectives of the characters seamlessly while still being distinct to each character's own personality. The world-building for this story was also brilliantly done, introducing various factions and elements to the reader without it being overwhelming. I found myself really enjoying each of the characters; however, Isha was my favorite of the three siblings. Despite her circumstances, she never gave up hope and continued to fight for her freedom. Her willpower and determination despite the odds were truly inspiring. A King’s Radiance is truly one of those rare gems you find and I am honored to have been able to review this book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and I would highly recommend it to any fellow book lover. I think regardless of what genre you may prefer, this book can be enjoyed by anyone.
