Is The Queen of Nothing Spicy? Let’s Be Honest!
What Do We Even Mean by "Spicy"?
Alright, let’s get this straight—when someone asks if The Queen of Nothing is "spicy," they’re usually talking about romantic tension, steamy scenes, or just general heat between characters. And if you’ve read the first two books in The Folk of the Air series, you already know that Jude and Cardan have a relationship that’s… well, complicated (to put it mildly).
But here’s the thing—I went into this book expecting some serious tension, maybe even an explosive level of spice. And did it deliver? Well… let’s talk.
How Does The Queen of Nothing Compare to Other Books in the Series?
Honestly, after The Wicked King, where Jude and Cardan’s dynamic was dripping with power struggles and barely restrained attraction, I thought The Queen of Nothing would crank up the intensity even more. But (and here’s where my expectations took a hit) it actually pulls back a bit on the spice level.
Is There Any Romance?
Yes, of course! Jude and Cardan still have their signature tension, and there are moments where you’ll be flipping pages just waiting for them to give in. But compared to the slow-burn buildup of book two, this one is a little… softer? More emotionally driven than physically intense.
Are There Steamy Scenes?
Look, if you’re hoping for a full-blown, detailed, swoon-worthy spicy scene, you might be a little disappointed. There is a scene (and I won’t spoil it for you), but let’s just say it’s more about the emotional connection than the explicit details.
I actually had a conversation about this with my friend Sarah (who was fully Team "This Better Be Steamy"), and she was like, “Wait, that was it?” And honestly, I kinda felt the same.
So, Is The Queen of Nothing Spicy or Not?
If You Love Slow-Burn Tension...
You’ll still get plenty of Jude-Cardan banter, power dynamics, and chemistry, but the physical aspect is toned down compared to what some fans were expecting.
If You’re Looking for High-Level Spice...
This book leans way more into emotional resolution than steamy moments. There’s a beautiful intimacy to the way their relationship unfolds, but it’s not what I’d call "spicy" in the way some romance-heavy fantasy books are.
Final Verdict: Mildly Spicy, Heavy on the Feels
If The Wicked King was medium-spicy, The Queen of Nothing is more like a hint of heat—just enough to keep you invested, but not enough to set the pages on fire.
So, if you’re picking this up expecting Jude and Cardan to spend half the book tangled in bedsheets, you might want to adjust your expectations. But if you’re in it for the emotional depth, the growth, and the resolution of their story, it’s absolutely worth the read.
Did it give me exactly what I wanted? Not quite. But did I still love every second of it? Absolutely.
