The Banished Queen Saga is one of Frost Kay’s newest series. It began with Traitor of the Tides in 2025, followed by Empress of the Skies in 2026. The series follows a queen who has been stripped of her power and must fight to reclaim what was taken from her.
The first book, Traitor of the Tides, sets up the political conflict and introduces the central romance. Empress of the Skies continues the story with the stakes raised higher as the heroine moves from the sea to the sky in her quest for justice. The titles suggest a progression through different domains as the banished queen gathers allies and strength.
As a newer series, The Banished Queen Saga shows Kay continuing to build new worlds while sticking to the fantasy romance formula her readers enjoy. Fans of her earlier work in The Aermian Feuds and The Twisted Kingdoms will find familiar elements here, including political schemes, forbidden romance, and a heroine who refuses to stay down.
