The sequel to Kate Locke's spectacular Immortal Empire series that began in God Save the Queen.
Xandra Vardan is the newly crowned Goblin Queen of England. But her complicated life is by no means over.
There are the political factions vying for her favor, and the all-too-close scrutiny of Queen Victoria, who wants her head. Not to mention her werewolf boyfriend has demands of his own, and her mother is hell-bent on destroying the monarchy. Now she's the main suspect in a murder investigation — and Xandra barely knows which way is up.
What she does know is that nothing lasts forever — and immortality isn't all its cracked up to be.

      Multi-personaed Locke, who as Kady Cross writes the popular YA "Steampunk Chronicles," does adult steampunk/fantasy territory with this follow-up to this year's God Save the Queen, in which Queen Victoria still rules England--as a vampire. Here, heroine Xandra hunts for her missing brother while fending off suspicions of murder and the queen's unpleasant scrutiny.

      Newly proclaimed goblin queen Xandra Vardan is back and still in the mood to kick some serious butt. In this sequel to Locke's God Save the Queen, Xandra's brother Val has gone missing while investigating the suspicious disappearances of "halvies" from a popular London club. The suspects are vampire wannabes who will trade favors for a swig of vampire blood. Xandra, with the assistance of Vex, her boyfriend and alpha werewolf, and William, prince of the ferocious goblins, tackles a depraved group of villains searching for the reason behind the halvies' kidnappings. The constant action never lets the reader get bored and the humor keeps us amused. VERDICT Urban fantasy fans will want to read this, especially those who read the first book. Those new to the series will find the glossary at the back of the book a useful tool to get them up to speed. [See Prepub Alert, 8/16/12.]--Deb West, Gannon Univ. Lib., Erie, PA
