Invasion was the long awaited sequel to The Last Princess, which I totally loved. This story again grabbed your attention from the first chapter, and it kept that suspenseful feel throughout the story. It starts with Eliza not having a good feeling about the ship that everyone thinks brings good news, and from that moment, I was trying not to go and read the last page to see how everything ended. It was that eventful (There were a few all of a sudden sad moments. Why?! ). However, it did seem just a bit too fast-paced for such a short story. One moment Eliza was trying to figure out the conspiracy surrounding the invasion, and then, the story was ending. Yes, it did have an epilogue, but, some questions were left unanswered. For example, like in regards to Portia, what happened to her? She was mentioned at the beginning, and afterwards, she was no longer mentioned (She's still out there. Aahhh!). And, what about the rebuilding of England? Will it prevail this time? And, what about the love triangle? Wow, at the end I was rooting for the new guy, and then, that too, was just kind of left open-ended. Noooo... I hope there is another book in this series, and with more pages, please.
4 out of 5. :)
