Query: Tedious and Tiresome :::yawn::::

THE HIGH QUEEN has to be one of the worst sequels or follow-ups to a book I have ever read. THE CHILD QUEEN stood pretty well off on it's own, I didn't expect another book since everything wounded up together quite well in the first book. But NO! The author and publisher just had to throw in a dissapointingly long and dreadful sequel that was not at all worth my time. 1 star is still just too high of a score for this long and tediously detailed novel.
