Short Review: This is the last of the Westmark Trilogy. And just as much, and maybe more, the theme of this young adult book is duty before personal desires. It is odd how much a book about the monarchy and revolution and democracy can be apolitical. But this one is. It is too bad that this trilogy is out of print and not available digitally or on audiobook. Hopefully it will be resurrected at some point. I really like it.
