Sabara's essence still rests within her, however, and it's a constant battle for Charlie to remain in control of her body and thoughts. Charlie has claimed the throne and begun changing her queendom for the better. THE ESSENCE begins a short time after THE PLEDGE ends. If you haven't read it yet, check out my review of THE PLEDGE instead! THE ESSENCE can technically stand on its own, though there's a lot of backstory you miss if you ignore the fact that THE PLEDGE came first. So give it a try, ignore that chatter.you might be surprised! The first book just happens to feature a tyrannical ruler. And, again, this series isn't truly dystopian. I love Kings and Queens and Kingdoms! Princesses, Knights in Shining Armor, I say bring it on. Readers saw those reviews and stayed away from the book. If you didn't like Kings and Queens and Kingdoms, you didn't like THE PLEDGE. People loved it or hated it, and there was little in-between. A lot of people who read THE PLEDGE had a mixed reaction because they don't like their dystopian and fantasy to mix, and they were mixing hardcore in the book. That word has disappeared, and the series is now full-on fantasy. If you previously skipped the first novel in The Pledge Trilogy because people were calling it that now-dreaded word, dystopian, rethink your decision.
