## Description

A page-turning, unforgettable fantasy set in a city peopled with ruffians, spies, malcontents and murderers. Experience out-of-this world adventure and dangerous politics as Maggie tries to survive waking up in her favourite fictional world. A heart-pounding epic from No. 1 New York Times bestselling author duo Ilona Andrews. When Maggie wakes up cold, filthy and naked in a gutter, it doesn’t take her long to recognize Kair Toren. It’s a city she knows intimately from the pages of a famously unfinished dark fantasy series – one she’s been obsessively reading and re-reading, while waiting years for the final novel. Her only tools for navigating this gritty world of rival warlords, magic and mayhem? Her encyclopaedic knowledge of the plot, the setting and the characters’ ambitions and fates. But while she quickly discovers she cannot be killed (though many will try!), the same cannot be said for the living, breathing characters she’s coming to love. Maggie joins a motley band that includes a former lady’s maid, a deadly assassin, various outrageous magical creatures and a dangerously appealing soldier. Soon, instead of trying to return home, she finds herself enmeshed in the schemes – and attentions – of duelling princes, dukes and villains. This all while trying to save them and the kingdom of Rellas from the ending she’s seen on the page: a cataclysmic war. This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me is the beginning of the most epic adventure yet from genre powerhouse writing duo Ilona Andrews. For fans of Samantha Shannon, Sarah J. Maas, Danielle L. Jensen and isekai portal fantasy. ‘Exciting, complex, with indelible characters and a heroine who cannot die: loved it’ – Charlaine Harris, author of The Southern Vampire Mysteries ‘An irresistible plunge into another world. I was captivated from the very first line’ – Danielle L. Jensen, author of A Fate Inked in Blood ‘Absolutely brilliant! This is the kind of book that will make you forget the world exists’ – Sarah Beth Durst, author of The Spellshop ‘ This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me will delight . . . a perfect blend of humor and high stakes’ – Katee Robert, author of Neon Gods ‘A fun premise and wonderfully deep worldbuilding’ – Django Wexler, author of How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying 'Fantasy, romance, danger – this book has it all. Addictive. I need the sequel stat’ – Felicia Day, author of Third Eye

Review: Brilliant.. - Ilona Andrews are my comfort authors I love them for dependable comfortable stories with casts both main and secondary that I enjoy spending time with. All that said I feel that THIS KINGDOM WILL NOT KILL ME has taken a huge step forward for their writing keeping all their strengths and ditching or reducing some of their weaker and tropey bound habits. Even if you were not a fan before this book their first real venture into traditional second world fantasy, I would highly recommend giving a go as a Portal fantasy /epic it’s very solid has interesting ideas , excellent characters while romance plays a part in the story it’s not over whelming and some of the predictably is balanced out by the first that Maggie is one one of the more practical MC’S I have read in fantasy in a non grim dark way that is. The set up is very similar to one of my favourites from last long live evil, in both book the FMC finds herself in her favourite fantasy book series as the world is approaching a apocalyptic event with only their knowledge of the unfinished series to guide them. However this kingdom is both less dark and less comedic then long live evil with the reason she is in this world a mystery with her being in her body rather then as a character in the story. It’s solid and well plotted , maggies special ability in all meanings is used sparingly, the characters are many and interesting including the villians and Maggie is interesting to follow a genuinely good hearted character who is practical enough to understand the dangers in interfering (and also to accept fairly fast that these are obviously real people and just not part of some fictional world.) but not willing to stand while people die. Here the world building also shines simple but effective magic is present in three forms temple magic not really explored yet , the magic of mages a non hereditary very powerful wide ranging ability and then the noble families who all possess they own powerful but more limited in focus ( usually not surprisingly battle related ) talents tied to their bloodlines while the world has knights and mages and is medieval adjacent its not the normal mediaeval European clone indoor plumbing exists as does toilet paper, while knights and armour exists thanks to different types of iron in the story for different purposes (nor clear if this is a natural or due to magical reasons ) they are not the clanky awkward things of history and reenactments. Maggies own twin abilities one of resurrection and the other of knowledge gained from her reading are used well with actual consequences the more she uses her knowledge of the series the more she changes things making her abilities less useful and her ability to resurrect is just that it’s not instant healing it’s painful and has restrictions. All in all one of my favourite books of the year so far.
Review: Excellent - The first of a promised trilogy, ‘This Kingdom will not Kill Me’ is Ilona Andrews’ first foray into epic fantasy: quite literally so, as the protagonist, Maggie, wakes up one day to find herself within the city of Kair Toren. She has no explanation as to why she is now within the place and storyline of her favourite epic fantasy book series, but she resolves to wield her knowledge and understanding of the of the characters and storylines of that series like a weapon. She might be a 21st century fish out of water in Kair Toren, but her caring for the book characters and her own moral code push her to become a player in increasingly dangerous political waters. All this, despite the fact that as she changes what she knows ‘should’ happen from the books she knows and loves, she is changing the storyline and losing the advantage she has of knowing what ‘should’ come next. Unlike the scheming and plotting powerful eight families in the Kingdom of Rellas (Kair Toren is the Kingdom’s capital), Maggie has no apparent magical powers. Except that it appears that she can’t die, something that is put to the test several times in this first instalment. ‘This Kingdom will not Kill Me’ introduces Maggie and some of the key political players with some wonderful and immersive world-building. It’s definitely a departure from Ilona Andrews’ usual style, but I would say that both newcomers to the authors (Ilona Andrews is a wife-and-husband authorial team) and long-time fans will enjoy this book very much. Do you have to be a hard-core epic fantasy fan or fan of isekai (portal fantasy) books to enjoy it? Absolutely not! Most of us have favourite books we re-read and return to. Books where we imagine what it must be like to live in the world they portray: Maggie gets that opportunity, and, the result is a lot of fun (OK, and some blood and guts, but this is epic fantasy, after all). I’m not one for spoilers, but I will say that after the satisfying heists, hubris and plot-hatching that feature in this book, we are left with several unanswered questions, including: why was Maggie pulled from ‘our’ world into Kair Toren? Can Maggie be killed there? Is it important that in ‘our’ world, Adrian Latour - the mysterious author of the epic fantasy book series that features Rellas and Kair Toren - only published two out of the three promised books in the series, before apparently disappearing ten years ago? Oh, and when is instalment two of this series going to be published? Because I’d really, really like to read more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hold on tight and enjoy the ride
*by D***L on 8 April 2026*

Having read other books by Ilona Andrews, I knew I would enjoy this new series. What I didn’t expect was how much I would enjoy it. Their world building is detailed and compelling, their characters are believable and nuanced, the main protagonists instantly likeable and relatable. But somehow they managed to also make you feel at home in this strange world, want to hang out with the gang and help them fight the good fight. The world Maggie is thrown into is harsh without being dark and sinister, the baddies are grounded rather than stereotypical evil and sinister beings. Yes, the male characters are all broad shouldered with corded muscles and in their late twenties as you would expect, but it’s the female protagonist who’s in the centre of everything and who pulls it all together. Having reread a few scenes initially, I think I’m due for a full reread soon. Which is a first. Good to know that the second book is already in the works. If you like strong female characters, found families and deep world building, this is for you. Just hold on tight and enjoy the ride.
