Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter Vol. 4

Today’s post is on Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter Vol. 4 by Reia, art by Suki Umemiya and character design by Haduki Futaba. It is 162 pages long and is published by Seven Seas Publishing. As it is the fourth volume in the series you need to have read the first three to understand the story. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main character Iris with some scenes from different characters for plot development. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- After being banished from high society, Iris has managed to invigorate her father’s domain as acting fief lord. But when an invite comes from the Queens Dowager, Iris finds herself called to court once more… just as the struggle for the crown begins to heat up. Can Iris find a way to manipulate the outcome to her own advantage, or will she become caught in the crossfire?

Review- The plot is starting to move into a more political direction with Isis being noticed for the way that she has reformed her home. She has been pulled back into the royal court and within moments, the second prince and the woman he left her for, start berating her for showing her face. Iris handles it well but she sees that something is going on with the ‘heroine’ Yuri, that Yuri is manipulating the men around her for some reason. The plot is getting more political and will be interesting to see how Iris is going to deal with this. War is on the horizon and the Dowager Queen can see it coming and I am not sure what her end game is but I am really enjoying this series. 

I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
