The Folk of the Air Complete Gift Set Kindle Edition

Discover Holly Black's epic bestselling The Folk of the Air series in this complete e-book collection which includes: The Cruel Prince, The Lost Sisters, The Wicked King, and The Queen of Nothing.

Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.

And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.

Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.

To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences.

In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black comes the stunning The Folk of the Air trilogy filled with twists and enchantment, as one girl learns the meaning of true power when she finds herself caught in a web of royal faerie intrigue.

Review

Praise for The Wicked King:



*"A stunning and compelling sequel."―--SLJ, starred Review

*"A heady blend of courtly double-crossing, Faerie lore, and toxic attraction swirls together in the sequel to THE CRUEL PRINCE.... Black's writing is both contemporary and classic; her world is, at this point, intensely well-realized, so that some plot twists seem almost inevitable."―Kirkus, starred Review

*"[A] dangerous journey filled with mystery, betrayal, intrigue, and romance.... Larger-than-life action in a kingdom packed with self-centered, evil, and manipulating characters also doles out real life issues."―VOYA, starred Review

*"A rare second volume that surpasses the first, with, happily, more intrigue and passion still to come."―Booklist, Starred Review

Praise for The Cruel Prince:



"Lush, dangerous, a dark jewel of a book. Black's world is intoxicating, imbued with a relentless sense of peril that kept me riveted through every chapter of Jude's journey. And Jude! She is a heroine to love--brave but pragmatic, utterly human. This delicious story will seduce you and leave you desperate for just one more page."―Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom

"I require book two immediately. Holly is the Faerie Queen."―Victoria Aveyard, #1 bestselling author of The Red Queen series

* "[S]pellbinding.... Breathtaking set pieces, fully developed supporting characters, and a beguiling, tough-as-nails heroine enhance an intricate, intelligent plot that crescendos to a jaw-dropping third-act twist."―Publishers Weekly, starred review

* "Another fantastic, deeply engaging, and all-consuming work from Black that belongs on all YA shelves."―School Library Journal, starred review

* "Jude, who struggles with a world she both loves and hates and would rather be powerful and safe than good, is a compelling narrator. Whatever a reader is looking for--heart-in-throat action, deadly romance, double-crossing, moral complexity--this is one heck of a ride."―Booklist, starred review

"This is a heady blend of Faerie lore, high fantasy, and high school drama, dripping with description that brings the dangerous but tempting world of Faerie to life. Black is building a complex mythology; now is a great time to tune in."―Kirkus Reviews

Recently got into fantasy books. Had read several other series and honestly was worried they were all basically the same plot, written super similar, and was about to move on from fantasy books. I loved this series so much! It was beautifully written, really interesting plot, not predictable, and complex characters. Thank you for saving fantasy books for me! I have hope more are well written and interesting like this series!

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024

So I've gone down the spicy gothic fantasy romance rabbit hole and I've seen so many videos with so many books they've started to bleed together and I think this more falls into YA fantasy romance? It def wasn't spicy which had me pretty confused waiting for something to happen all through the first book - haha - oops. Anyway, even missing that factor I found it a really great story with really great characters. I definitely didn't call out the betrayals (like literally any of them so either good on her or bad on me lol) but I did guess several of the answers to riddles and problems. I was dying the last book - especially the last few chapters! Literally walked into work reading and shushed everyone all the way to my locker then died inside waiting for my shift to end so I could finish it! So glad I got the whole set together - I'll def be reading this again.

Holly Black paints a vivid exciting story that kept me turning the page. I couldn’t put it down and couldn’t wait to read each book. I actually originally bought these books on digital and stayed all night when each book was released. I loved them so much I bought the print set! I love that it has a little bit of everything in it fantasy, adventure, romance, small amounts of humor, and mystery. All tied up in a beautiful story. The main character is well written and I love the strength and that she defends herself but, still has moments of vulnerability. I loved each book and how she ties everything together in the end. I love that there was so much more to the main male lead, than I thought. I like that you see him develop in each book. I also enjoyed the surprises through the book, multiple little twists I didn’t expect. I am so excited to read her next series that is about the main characters younger brother. I just started the first few chapters and I’m not disappointed.

The quality of the set is excellent. They are a very well made set. Great binding. I use digital sometimes, but will never be able to part with that new book smell and feel.

I had no idea what I was getting into when I bought the trilogy, however booktok brought me here and I thoroughly enjoyed reading this series. So much so that I immediately started reading the duology that takes place in this same universe. Jude makes some questionable decisions, but nonetheless it was a fun read.

The media could not be loaded.
 Nervous about getting into fantasy reads?? Look no further! This is probably THE best series to dip your toes into the world of magic and fairies. This series consists of 3 books for the main character Jude. But there are 2 novellas that speak in the perspective of her sister and the antagonist. These books are a fast and easy read. You could easily finish this in a couple of days. Cute little graphics punctuate the chapters and books if appearance is something that tickles your fancy. But these books have magic, fighting, war, betrayal, and some romance. Check it out for yourself!

The package was delivered on time. The books look and feel perfectly new. The paper's sound, clean, spines are intact. There was a slight and very small dent on one corner of the box and subsequently a on the corners of a few pages of The Queen of Nothing book. But this package had a very long journey and switched hands (delivery companies) before it came to me across the ocean in Tbilisi, so I can't even start guessing when it happened. The damage, if I can even call it that, is perfectly insignificant and unnoticeable. The books are unharmed, no tears or smudges or anything you might dread on your precious book.
