Princess of Dawn - Megan Gilbert - Bog

Galdinia Elderwin, the nineteen-year-old Princess of Crysterra, has lived in the safety of her father's shadow her whole life. When the king unexpectedly dies, Galdinia is left with the task of becoming queen, but she is missing the key to her ascension to the throne: her gift of elemental power from the Gods.
After the king's death, the capital of Crysterra observes the Week of Mourning, which is full of ceremonies and celebrations in honour of the late king, and on the Seventh Day of Mourning, Princess Galdinia is set to be coronated as queen. In the span of one week, Galdinia must navigate the throes of training for a gift she has not yet been given, gain the respect of the capital's Syndicate-who still view her as a child-and overcome the heartache of past forbidden love as she is presented with five powerful and charming suitors who could help legitimise her claim to the throne. All the while, she is wary of her enemies on the horizon-her loathsome uncle and aunt, and the exiled Valah Pyrin-who all believe they have a claim to the throne and would do anything to take it from the young princess.
Galdinia struggles to deal with the rising pressure and anxieties of becoming queen on her own merit, doing right by the citizens of Crysterra, and having faith in the Gods, and more importantly, herself.
Princess of Dawn is the first book in The Crystal Crown Trilogy. With its fast-paced story and expansive world, Princess of Dawn is perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Victoria Aveyard.
