The Remarried Empress, Vol. 2

Today's manga post is on The Remarried Empress, Vol. 2 by Alphatart and Sumpul (Artist). It is272 pages long and is published by Ize Press. The cover has Navier reaching for Queen on it. As it is the second volume in the series, you need to have read the first volume to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes historical fantasy stories with slow burn love stories. 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, Navier. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- My Queen...I don't want to lie to you of all people.
Now that Navier knows the identity of her pen pal, she's happy to find herself growing closer to Heinrey. But things aren't that simple for the empress- not everyone is quite so pleased about their friendship, and the charming prince himself seems to be hiding something big... Meanwhile Rashta's secret has been exposed, leaving her backed into a corner. With threats looming over her head and Sovieshu's eye trained on Navier, just how far is Rashta willing to go to preserve her new life?

Review- This volume picks up right where the previous volume left off. Rashta has been found by her former master and he tells the whole court that she was a slave. But the emperor makes him pay for embarrassing her. Somehow the emperor makes it all Navier's fault. She handles herself well and people who are watching see how graceful she is. Navier is dealing with both the emperor and Rashta well in spite of both of them wanting to blame her everything. She continues to do her job as empress. Heinrey also continues to try and woo her gently and the emperor is noticing this. I am enjoying this manga, the art is good, the story is interesting, and there is lots of drama! I hope that we get the divorce scene soon because I am getting sick of the emperor and Rashta's dramatics. 

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.
