In this latest installment of The New York Times bestselling quartet that began with The Beautiful, Pippa journeys to the treacherous and beguiling world of the fey in search of answers but instead falls in love.
Following the explosive events of The Damned, Odette faces a vampire’s final death. The Court of the Lions have done everything they can to save her but have failed. A healer from the Sylvan Vale could help her, but only Arjun Desai, as a half fey, can cross the boundary between realms. The Sylvan Vale is a world Arjun despises, and in return, it despises him. But knowing it could save Odette, he returns to the Vale with all haste, leaving the mirrored tare between the two worlds open and unwittingly setting the stage for both love and war.
It’s mere days until Pippa Montrose is to wed Phoebus Devereux and become a member of his well-heeled family, offering salvation to her own. But Celine is missing. Pippa has no idea where her best friend has gone, but she’s certain it’s in the company of vampire Sébastien Saint Germain and that Arjun can lead her to them. Pippa enjoins the help of Eloise, the daughter of a powerful sorceress, to discover the gateway Arjun uses to travel between worlds. Pippa, tired of hesitating in life, marches right through in search of her friend. But what she discovers on the other side is a dangerous, duplicitous world full of mischief and magic she doesn’t understand, and most unexpectedly, she finds love.
Author of the New York Times bestselling duology The Wrath & The Dawn, Renée Ahdieh is back. The Righteous is the can’t-miss lead in to what will be a much-anticipated finale of a can't miss quartet.

Pippa and Arjun

The Righteous by Renee Ahdieh is the third book in the The Beautiful Quartet. This book now focuses on Pippa and Arjun and immediately starts after the end of the second book and you definitely have to read the previous books beforehand.
Pippa is the best friend of Celine and she does everything to support her friend. But this leads her into uncertain terrain and she goes there without preparation.
The book is mainly set in the fae world of the Sylvan Vale and it was intriguing to see more of that. Yet at the same time I definitely missed to see New Orleans.
Arjun is half fae and despises the Sylvan Vale, but in order to find a healer he goes there. Both Arjun and Pippa are on a mission there, but get stuck together and even have to be fake engaged.
This introduces a whole new plot line and Pippa and Arjun who were previously side characters, now are the focus and you get to know them really well. My favorite part was their banter and calling each other with terms of endearment.
The storyline was often very fordable and a lot slower paced then the previous books, yet there still was some drama and romance. This book is definitely more character driven than plot driven.
Overall, I really love this world and it was interesting to see more of it, but I just couldn’t connect to this book as much as to Celine and Sébastien’s story. 3 stars.
