Now 17, Oak sets out on a dangerous mission to save his villainous father Madoc, despite being prohibited by his sister the High Queen Jude, and to defeat the notorious Lady Nore who plots her ruthless revenge against Elfhame. Set nine years after the Battle of the Serpent in The Queen of Nothing, The Stolen Heir brings back unfinished business from the previous series where the reluctant prince Oak and the runaway queen Wren embark on a deadly and forbidden quest. In January 2023, The Stolen Heir made its grand appearance, continuing the story of Elfhame’s royalty under the perspective of the familiar character Wren, or the runaway Queen Suren, accompanied by Jude’s very own adoptive brother and heir to the throne, Oak. The Cruel Prince trilogy had left an unforgettable legacy of protagonist Jude Duarte and her troublesome enemy Cardan Greenbriar that many readers found difficult to let go of. After four years of fans craving for more of their favorite Faerie fantasy universe, author Holly Black finally released the long awaited The Stolen Heir, a journey taking readers back to the comforts and delights of Elfhame and the first book in her new duology.
