The Shadow Throne

The book I read was called "The Shadow Throne". I picked the book because I was reading the series, and wanted to see how it ended. The protagonist is the king of Carthya, Jaron. The antagonists are all of the other countries who declared war on Jaron. The main conflict is that Carthya is very weak, and  3 countries have started war. The antagonists take away Imogen, who Jaron is in love with. The theme is no matter how many times you fail, you should always try again. The best part of the book is when Jaron finds Imogen in the jail alive, and they escape together. I would rate this book a 9.
