    King’s Cage by Victoria Aveyard My rating: 4 of 5 stars King’s Cage is the third book in the Red Queen series, but not the final book in the installment.

There are only one or two instances of a curse word being used and no inappropriate scenes detailed. This is a very enjoyable read that will keep you up into the wee hours of the…
