Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco


A James Patterson Presents Novel


From the #1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Stalking Jack the Ripper series comes a new blockbuster series...


Two sisters. One brutal murder. A quest for vengeance that will unleash Hell itself... And an intoxicating romance.


Emilia and her twin sister Vittoria are streghe witches who live secretly among humans, avoiding notice and persecution. One night, Vittoria misses dinner service at the family's renowned Sicilian restaurant. Emilia soon finds the body of her beloved twin...desecrated beyond belief. Devastated, Emilia sets out to find her sister's killer and to seek vengeance at any cost-even if it means using dark magic that's been long forbidden.


Then Emilia meets Wrath, one of the Wicked-princes of Hell she has been warned against in tales since she was a child. Wrath claims to be on Emilia's side, tasked by his master with solving the series of women's murders on the island. But when it comes to the Wicked, nothing is as it seems...


REVIEW: WOWZA!! This book has been all over Bookstagram for ages and has had some pretty polarizing reviews. I was pretty nervous to read it because I was really excited for this on and I wanted it to be good. It did not disappoint! This book was absolutely delicious. I ate up every word, every spell, every fight, every steamy moment (which I need more.). I've never read anything from this author but will be looking into her past novels now for sure! This book ticked all the boxes for me......dark......magic.......enemies to lovers (almost).....heart shattering plot twist.....betrayal......and some fabulous wardrobe choices. This is for fans of Girl, Serpent, Thorn and The Folk of the Air trilogy. I will be on the edge of my seat waiting for the next part of this story....very impatiently may I add. This was a definite 5 star read and a great start to this months' reading.
