“All hail the…wait, who are we hailing again??”
The leadership of the rabbits against Morbin has taken one wonky turn after another throughout our so-far three-book series. We began knowing Jupiter as king, then Lord Rake, then Smalls, then Bleston, then Emma as queen, and now we might be circling back around to Smalls! With the last chapter of Ember Rising, we discovered that our best and favorite prince is alive. What will this mean for the monarchy, you ask?
Either way, they still get an incredible king or an incredible queen.
So what’s all the fuss about? Sure, Smalls might have been ruler first, but Emma’s ruler now, right?
Perhaps…or not…
Here it is, loyal subjects of the Heir of Jupiter: your chance to debate whether Smalls or Emma is a better monarch to the rabbits!
It is a little disappointing in my view that, so far as we know, the rabbits have never had a ruling Queen. Sure, Lillie and Lady Glen and Heather are awesome, but they’re all royal consorts. Might be nice if a doe of royal blood could have had a shot, though I know Emma didn’t want it.
