The Heir The selection Book 4 eBook Kiera Cass

Actual rating 2.5 stars.

I was curious to see where Kiera Cass would take this series with the next generation… I have a love/hate relationship with these books, issues with the characters and their attitudes, but love the complexity of plot and tabloid allure. However, ‘The Heir’ failed to deliver on all of these counts.

I did not connect with Eadlyn as much as I did with America. I found Eadlyn entitled, and we never get to find out - due to the nature of the narrative - if she indeed has a worldly view as expected of her in the role of monarch. Her ‘work’ is always alluded to but never completely explained. It left me thinking Eadlyn as shallow, protected and scared. It builds great tension, but left me not all that invested in her future. I put it down to how she was written – educated, aloof and separate from everyone else. Eadlyn herself mused on this, how she had intentionally isolated herself in order to become a better ruler – it also made her hard to relate to, cold, and somewhat bitchy.

There was also a lot less going on in this novel in comparison to the Selection trilogy. We were aware of the caste systems, the politics and the plotting and planning of all the characters involved. In ‘The Heir’ we lost most of that and instead were dealt up a dish of Eadlyn’s self discovery. I wanted more about the rebels, more conniving politics, more entwined storylines – like The Selection.

Even though this effectively re-booted the story line, it left me with much of the feeling of a middle book in a trilogy, setting things up, moving the story forward a small amount, but resolving little.

The ending was brilliant. A cliff hanger I did not see coming. Not in a million years. It is the one thing that has me wanting to read the next in the series. Plus, I feel as though I’m going to get more of what I want from this new generation of royals.

It was an easy read, but I ended spreading it out over a week, consuming the last half in a day; as I mentioned, there didn’t feel like there was enough going on to hold my attention. It was fun, and enjoyable, but a little flat. Though not the best book of the series, it certainly has set things up for an explosive ending and I can’t wait to find out what is going to happen.

We get glimpses of Maxon, America and Aspen, and many of the other characters from the first three books: it was entertaining to see how they had grown over the last few decades. There was less explained about the world and political landscape than I would have liked, and Kiera Cass seemed to spend a lot of time describing clothes more than anything… But the Selection series has been a guilty pleasure of mine, though I find many faults in the characters and tropes, the novels are undeniably compelling to read. I just can’t stop. So Cass must doing something right.

The Heir The selection Book 4 eBook Kiera Cass Reviews


For years now, I have read the Selection series so many times, SO MANY TIMES in both Greek and English. There are not enough words to describe my long lasting love for the Selection series. It will always remain my most favorite YA series ever. So romantic, so heart warming and heart wrenching at the same time. America and Maxon will always be my most favorite couple.

Eadlyn has a totally different character than them, however she does try her best to follow her parents' steps and be a beloved queen. She makes a lot of mistakes, but she tries her best to stand up and fix them. Kile too will always be my most favorite character of the next generation!

Thank you very much, Kiera Cass, for creating this world.

Very fluffy, very easy to read and finish. No strong violence, no swearing, no sex scenes. Suitable even to 12 years old readers.
The Heir is more of a companion than a continuation of the Selection series.
I must admit, Eadlyn is a frustrating, annoying, and bratty protagonist who I often found myself wishing I could slap, but by the end of the novel, I realized that somewhere along they way she had matured and developed into a tolerable main character who I could root for.
Now, after reading about 35 women chase after 1 man, I was extremely excited to see it play out the other way around. Kiera Cass did not disappoint. I cannot decide which of the several main male characters that I want to be with Eadlyn. I absolutely loved Kile, Henri, Fox, and Hale. And Erik as well but I don't know if he counts as being in the running for her hand.
My absolute favorite part of this novel was, of course, Maxon and America. They were still just as adorable as they were in the first three books. Maxon is still completely devoted to America while America adores Maxon with all of her being. I loved the references to their selection and the shenanigans that occurred.
I desperately need the sequel, especially after that god awful cliff hanger. Seriously, give me more now.
The Heir was a solid 4/5, which is surprising considering it had so much to live up to due to it following the amazing first three Selection books.
No, seriously. I know it's tempting to want to get "the conclusion" to the story, but you're just in for a disappointment. You do get some additional information about existing characters from the first three books, but the focus of this is entirely on Eadlyn and that is truly unfortunate. She starts out as a truly bratty girl, and while she does turn around on that point, her entire evolution - indeed, the entire series - seems rushed and awkward. She makes a far greater change from the beginning of book one to the end of book two than America did over three books, and it's entirely unbelievable. She essentially grows a new personality and a new set of morals in the space of 8 weeks, and I just don't buy it. Eadlyn is such a shallow character, with no depth, and I find that time spent with her is uncomfortable from start to finish.

The rest of the story feels the same way - shallow and rushed. Perhaps Kiera Cass would have done better to extend Eadlyn's tale over three books as well, so it didn't seem so completely jarring. The end feels completely out of the blue and has the ring of "deus ex machina" about it, and made me wish I hadn't wasted my time. I don't really believe in any of the other characters either; even America and Maxon seem to be carbon copies of the strong, well-developed characters they were only one book ago. The little tidbits about them and the rest of the original gang are not worth the flattening they undergo in this book and the subsequent one, and I'd rather they live in their original form in my mind.

I'm still a huge fan of the first three books, but it seems to me that it might be better to simply pretend that the story ends there.
Actual rating 2.5 stars.
