This Kingdom is Best of the Year So Far Again

"buy my book", Blog, Maggie, Snippet 151 Comments | POST A COMMENT June 17, 2026 by Ilona

These titles are getting longer and longer.

Ahem. Drum roll, please!

Apple books thinks that This Kingdom is the Best Of the Year So Far. Here is the link, but I think it only works if you are signed into Apple Books.

 “Explore a new world in this wickedly inventive portal fantasy.”

Woo!

But wait, there is more.

 This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me audiobook has received a starred review from Library Journal. It appears in their June issue.

“VERDICT An excellent listen for fans of singNsong’s Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint or Sarah Rees Brennan’s Long Live Evil, which suggest that loving books may be the greatest power of all.“

Thank you so much to Apple Books and Library Journal. We think you are the best as well!

Also our deepest gratitude to Kristen Sieh for her incredible narration.

    Congratulations! We know you are the best and the rest of the world is catching on. Thank you for the snippet. I’m starting to think that Sol is going to be my favorite.

    Congrats! So glad reviewers are sharing the love and explaning your readership! Thank you for the Solentine snippets ❤️! If your schedule allows you to eventually get back to them, you could post them here like Innkeeper and then package them as a short (a true short, not like Augustine’s story which ballooned into a novella, lol!) on Amazon to generate xmas revenue or whatever. We would totally purchase it!

    I read the book twice in a row. It’s magical! These snippets get me by! Hey, is there a book or novella on how Andrea and Raphael made up after the Erra incident? The next book has them engaged but they were broken up before then! How about a snippet on that? Lol jk jk…or

    I thought it was so cool thatTKWNKM rated 4.8 on Apple. That was the 2nd highest rating. Only topped by a non-fiction and a social conscious character study. Heck it beat Michael Connelly

    I did not know this would be a series and not a standalone fantasy book until I got closer to the end. I kept saying to myself “there are only so many pages left, how can it all be resolved in time?”

    When I finally got to the point that there would be more books, I was both elated and sad at the same time. Elated because there was MORE. I could not put this amazing book down. Sad because I knew I would have to wait, lol. I am ready for the next book! And more!

    I loved the narrator of the audiobook. I thought she did a great job.

    I love Sol. He is such an interesting character.
