What a fun, fantastic series that will delight readers of all ages. This collection contains four books from Luana that are simply captivating. I picked up these books individually and can not recommend highly enough the entire collection. It was fun, whimsical, fast paced, delightfully detailed. I found myself devouring each book as quickly as I could put my hands on them. Wonderful pieces from Luana, who never seems to disappoint. Highly recommend.

I absolutely loved this collection of stories!! They were so magical with a good amount of suspense and along with it some fantastic plot twists and turns. I really liked the characters and I loved reading about them. One of the things I loved about this series is how unique it was and I loved the author’s writing. The stories were written it in such an engaging way that I couldn’t put them down. Having read books by her previously I know that her world building is usually good but I thought that it was excellent in this series. I really liked Wren and I actually liked that I had to work hard to get to understand her, I found her character really intriguing but there was something about her that I just instantly liked. She was a fantastic, strong heroine to read about. I think I would definitely like one of the deserts that she bakes!! All of the characters in the stories were great to read about. I 100% recommend this series – it was a fantastic read!

The Confectioner Chronicles: The Complete Fantasy Mystery Series by Claire Luana
5 +++++ Stars
I absolutely loved this series. It contains 4 books and I highly recommend reading them all in order.
The Confectioner’s Guild –
This one was so unique and the added suspense and mystery had me hooked from page 1 and the last 25% of the book I was on the edge of my seat wondering how in the world she was going to make this all work…Brilliant is just one of the words that come to mind. So many things happen in this story that I’m not even going to try to sum it up
The Confectioner’s Exile –
After reading the Confectioner’s Guild book 1 in this series it was completely awesome to go back and read Hale’s story. I don’t normally like doing this but it worked perfectly for me in this case. I was able to get a much better understanding of who Hale is and where he came from, and the lessons and the tragic losses he experienced along the way.
The Confectioner’s Coup –
This was the continued story of Wren and I loved it as much as the first part of this series. She just can’t win when it comes to staying out of the line of fire with being framed for murder and getting out of that to now suspecting the king of being behind guild members being kidnapped and now the enemy has entered the city.
There was some parts of this story that made me so angry and then parts that were so so sad. You don’t really ever know what your gonna get when you open up one of this authors books and I love that.
The Confectioner’s Truth –
There was a lot going on in this story, we met a lot of new people and visited many new places..I loved this part and I felt as if I was right there with Wren as she was making quick decisions and having a lot of inner battles…I found myself trying to help her and felt like I was feeling everything she was. This character has grown so much through these books and I have totally fallen in love with her, and poor Hale…I miss what feels like the old days with Hale and now there he is regretting so many things, this made me sad.
This author has done an amazing job with this series. I’ve loved every word and every page of all of these books. I absolutely can not wait to read them all again!! She ended this series beautifully and in my humble opinion sets the bar high for any other books in this genre.
Brilliant and I can’t wait to read what is to come from this author!! This is one of those books/series that deserves so much more than 5 stars.

I read these as individual stories and waiting for the next story to drop was painful at times (I can be a little Veruca Salti-sh at times.
These stories are full of all the things that make a good YA fantasy series live up to its expectations. There are wonderful friendships, adventure, intrigue, baked goods, action, and a fast paced narrative. This is a very engaging tale and i would recommend it to old and young alike.

The Confectioner’s Coup by Claire Luana is book 2 in the Confectioners Chronicles. Much like the other books I have read by this author, this book is well written and thoroughly enjoyable. I really like the character development and the story line in this book. This book has just enough suspense to keep you on your toes and interested, and who doesn’t love magical food. I’m very interested to see what happens next with the characters in this book. This author is new to me, but I will definitely continue to read this series and anything else she writes. I give this book a solid 4 star rating.
The Confectioner’s Coup is the second novel in the Confectioner Chronicles by Claire Luana. This is my fourth novel by this author.
After surviving the ordeals from the first book, Wren is now trying to prove the King is to blame for sudden disappearances of some of the guild members including a new recruit.
This new investigation takes her another journey with friends and foes. Will she be able to stop a rebellion?
I really enjoyed this novel and was so excited to read this novel.
Wren is such a strong, relatable female character who has gone through so much since entering the Guild but still pushes through anything thrown at her.
The POVs do change which was surprising but I enjoyed reading from the other voice once I got use their pace and tone.
This is the second book in The Confectioner Chronicles and i loved it! I liked it even more than i liked the first one. This book kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next and it was great. This book has it all… Mystery, suspense, humor and of course a little bit of romance. I HIGHLY suggest reading these books in order to get the best reading experience because they shouldn’t be read as standalones. I absolutely adore Wren. She is a fantastic main character and she’s funny and strong. I really am looking forward to reading book number three so i can figure out what happens! Go get this series now! Happy Reading!

The Confectioner’s Coup by Claire Luana is the second book in the Confectioner Chronicles series. I recommend having read the first book first because this picks up the story from the first book. The story continues for Wren and things are not looking good for her and others in the guild. Guild members are going missing and the King is out of control. I have enjoyed this as well as the first book and the novella. The writing is well written and entertaining. This is a twist and turn thriller that at times kept me on the edge of my seat. I like the characters and the story is interesting and well thought out. I look forward to reading the next book in the series and seeing where the story goes.
The Confectioner’s Coup (The Confectioner Chronicles #2) by Claire Luana was just as good as the first and, had me just as engaged and hooked.
The second book in The Confectioner Chronicles we are once again tossed back into the fire. With the happenings all concluded in the first and Wren being aquitted for a crime she didn’t even commit, things seems like they’re on the up. But, with this world and the way their monarchy works, things don’t stay quiet for long.
I will say that I was a little worried that this book may not live up to the first. As that first book was a rare read first installment where things actually concluded, and if the series were to end at that book, even with its loose ends, I would have been content. (As all first books should be). But this book has done what I’ve been yearning for, it went in and rose the bar. That’s right, this book took it up a notch and, man oh man, this was one hell of a ride.
Masterfully written this beautiful dangerous world isn’t like anything I have read before. It just keeps hitting me with new fresh ideas and plots, that I can’t believe this book, this series, isn’t more popular. Not only are we treated with talented writing but, the emotions behind that wiriting gets you right in the feels. The character are more than well rounded they’re 3D, believable and multi layer, as is the plot. I can go on and on about how utterly amazing this book/ series is, but I’m going to leave you here, so you can hop along and get this book to experience its greatness for yourself.
This book gets my highest of high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval.
The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioners Chronicles) by Claire Luana 5 Stars
Oh my god, this book was amazing! I could not put it down. It was filled with action, lies, deceit and betrayals. Wren manages to not get executed but ends up in more trouble in this book. Guild members are getting kidnapped and an army is at the gates of Maradis ready to invade. Negotiations for the accord are not going well and there is dissension within the guilds. War is imminent and everything is falling apart, a rebellion might be the only solution.
The action starts right from the beginning and continues straight through until the end. There are so many twists and turns. When I finished reading the book, I was left speechless. Shocking events occur within this book. Characters that I didn’t really like in the first part, I found myself cheering for. Characters that I loved, I’m upset with. My emotions are all over the place. These characters go through so much in this story. Wren’s new found family has fallen apart and she’s adrift in a sea of sorrow. I am right there with her. This series keeps getting better with each additional book, I’m truly blown away. I can’t wait to read part three.
The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioner Chronicles Book 2) by Claire Luana
5 Stars!!!!!
I am once again not let down. This is the second book in this series and the third book including the prequel to the series that I have read. The author really has such a great way of grabbing the reader and keeping you at the edge of your seat. I really found myself getting lost in this magical confectioner’s world she has created.
I have to say that the more I read about Wren’s life the more I really find I am drawn to her character. She has gone through so much in her short time in the Guild and then to have to endure more. She is a very strong leading character and the author does such a great job of developing her character around the drama that unfolds. I really felt all the emotions vicariously as Wren went through them and in this book she has a roller coaster of them. She winds up losing so much and yet she still has Lucas. I really felt my heart in my throat as the book came to the ending and once again to have the book on a cliff hanger of sorts really has me anxious for the next book in the series. I will definitely be reading more from this author and the series.
This is the second book in the Confectioner Chronicles Series and I suggest reading Book 1 first as this picks up only a short time after the first story ends.
As with book 1, THE CONFECTIONER’S COUP is full of well developed / well defined characters. There were a few times I was getting characters from the first book confused but there are simple explanations as to who is who which did not bog down the story.
This story has a bit more twists and turns and isn’t as shiny and bright as one would expect. I think it’s a perfect combination of dark and light – well balanced. There are characters I do not care for and that’s what makes it interesting for me. I was anxious to see if the story would go “my way” so I kept turning the pages.
I think this book would be appropriate for middle school and higher for those that like to read fantasy stories (not THOSE kinds of fantasies).
This series has gotten better with each book. This story is super sad because everyone losses so much. All the death just doesn’t seem necessary. Revenge is ugly but presents itself as this wonderful thing that will make you feel better. Hale is in that dark space and there is no out for him. He truly didn’t know how to go on. Wren was a little useless to me. I don’t understand her character. I love stories about magic. It’s a world of infinite possibilities. I also love sweets. I was at the edge of my bed reading the last few chapters waiting for the end. I was shocked and saddened by all that transpired. Let’s hope the last book gives us an HEA.
Wowzer what a novel i was so blown away i enjoyed every second i honestly didn’t think the series could get any better but boy was i wrong! It made my emotions go all over the place one minute I’m so happy and all smiles like I’ve had a coat hanger in my mouth the next I’m holding back the tears and anger. It’s filled with fun, romance, suspense, mystery, betrayal plus so much more! I can’t wait to read more from this author.
I give The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioner Chronicles Book 2) by Claire Luana, 5 stars. *This review may contain spoilers from previous books in the series.*
Things just keep getting worse for Wren and her friends. There is an army on their city’s doorstep. Now things are happening within the Guild. Guild members are disappearing. But who is behind it? Is it the from the army threatening to attack? Or is it their own king? What can they do to resolve all this madness? At what cost?
I love this series, I have from the first book I read. I did not think it could get any better. But this book proved me wrong. It’s absolutely incredible. This book is darker than the rest as more is happening. The story pulls you in right away. There is so much happening. The characters are changing, they are growing up quickly to keep up with what is happening. They also know what they believe in — helping those they care about. This is such an intense book and you will be unable to put it down until you reach the end. Then you will quickly reach for the next book.

The Confectioner’s Coup (Confection Chronicles Book 2) Claire Luana 4 out of 5 stars
As if I wasn’t already invested in this series after the first book, The Confectioner’s Coup has me hooked and looking forward to reading more. I have really come to love Claire Luana’s style of writing, each story has so much to offer really making you feel every emotion. Not only is the storyline exciting and packed with twists and turns that kept me engaged from start to finish but the character development is also just as great. I have enjoyed learning more about Wren as the series progresses and seeing just what kind of chaos will find her next. As with the first book, The Confectioner’s Coup left me wanting more and anxious to see what is to come. Honestly looking forward to reading book number three of this unique, entertaining series.
I was so excited to start this book after loving the first book in the series and it was everything I wanted it to be and more. I have been so lucky to read a few books by this author now and each one has been an incredible read. Ms Luana really does have a talent for creating such unique storylines and characters – her attention to detail is excellent. I always feel like I am part of her stories and because of that attention to detail I can easily imagine what I am reading. This book definitely should be read after the first as it builds on the plot from the first story and the author adds another amazing layer to it! There were twists and turns everywhere and I honestly couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to try and find out what was going to happen next! I can’t wait to find out what happens next in the third book!!
The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioner Chronicles Book 2) by Claire Luana is a fantasy story that should not be missed. Claire weaves her magic with just the right amount of mystery and suspense, action and danger, romance and intrigue, heartache and love, humour and fun. I enjoyed the story so much that it finished before I was ready and I didn’t even notice because I was so enthralled to find out what was going to happen next. Wren was falsely accused of murder and barely survived, now she is having to face enemies, both old and new as she tries to solve the mystery behind disappearing Guild members. There are some twists and turns that sneak up on you but once again it is a book that should be on everyone’s to read list.
I have to say first and foremost that the covers that accompany the series of the Confectioner Chronicles are just stunning. In fact it was the cover of the first book, The Confectioner’s Guild, that first drew me into this series and sucked me into the world that Wren lives in. Like I have mentioned this is a series and The Confectioner’s Coup is the second book. I would read the first book as well as the prequel,The Confectioner’s Exile.
I could sit and talk about this book all day. Both storyline and reasons why I loved it. Each one of these books have progressively gotten better than the one before it and this one was not exception to the rule. The Confectioner’s Coup had a bit of it all; mystery, intrigue, suspense, fantasy, and just a sprinkle of romance to top it all off.
The story picks up about a month from where it left off in the last book. Wren faces more trouble in her life just as she finally gets herself out of the mess she found herself in in book one. (That detail would be a spoiler if you don’t read book one.) The King is back and still wreaking havoc. And best of all… there is another perfectly timed cliffhanger that will leave you hungry for that third book, The Confectioner’s Truth, I know I am. Thanks for another great read Ms. Luana.
Confectioner’s Coup by Claire Luana is the delicious second book in her newest series, the Confectioner Chronicles. The plot thickens in the latest instalment as an army arrives at the gates of Maradis, and the Guilds are thrown into dismay as the King struggles to gain power over them once more. But the Guild members are tired of answering to a blood thirsty King and his demands for Gifted produce from them. With an army fast approaching and Gifted guild members going missing, Wren must join forces with unexpected allies to help save the missing members and stop the King tyranny once and for all. If only Wren’s life could be a piece of cake, first she’s framed for a murder she didn’t commit and now the possibility of a rebellion and war. The girl needs a holiday, where she can enjoy her delicious baked goods. I really loved this second installment of the Confectioner Chronicles, Claire’s writing is phenomenal and captivating. She will have you hooked after the first line. All her characters are well developed and constructed, that you can see them as real people. And her descriptions of all the food in this story will have you drooling over your book. Every time I read a passage I immediately start craving baked goods and chocolates, then I have to put the book down and go out and get some. Thankfully I work in a cake shop and chocolate is never hard to come by. Absolutely loved this book and to see how the story continues to get bigger and bigger. I can’t wait to read the third book in the series. 5/5 stars!!

Claire Luana is an excellent YA author. With me saying that I love her books. I am finding more and more authors in the YA section that I enjoy reading. The Confectioner’s Coup is a mystery, fantasy, magic, and danger all wrapped into one. This is the second book and with that being said I would read the other book because you will have the background information. Wren is looking for the Guilds, who just happening to be missing more and more. Wren is not sure why they are missing. Will Wren find the Guilds in time? Will she have her answers she is looking for? I cannot wait to read book 3.

Luana does it again! This second installment in the series definitely does not disappoint. The world building, character development, storytelling … all are spellbinding and right on point. I can’t say enough good things about this author and series and certainly cannot wait to read more. Loved it!
The Confectioners Coup by Claire Luana is the second book in the Confectioner Chronicles. This series ideally needs to be read in order as it follows the same character on her journey. This author effortlessly pulls you back into Wrens story and the troubles she is facing. With new enemies and a dangerous mission ahead of her Wren has to put her wits and courage to the test once more. This series for me keeps getting better. Each book is a new turn in the road and it is making this a very exciting journey. I found this book to be fast paced and intriguing. I cannot wait to see what book 3 has in store!
A great read about thinking things through. Wren survived the ordeals of the first novel and is trying to resume her normal life. When her and Callidus are on the trail of a Gifted ice cream maker, they are attacked by mysterious men in black. However, the ice cream maker Thom joins them and is a fast friend. As war looms and tensions rise, Guild members start mysteriously disappearing., including Thom. Can Wren and her friends solve the mystery and find Thom before war threatens them all? a great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. I loved the character development of people such as Calliidus, as a kind and caring man underneath it all or Hale not just being a reckless fool which was brilliantly written. Also the King returns as a spinechilling force to be reckoned with. I loved the use of tension throughout the novel, as conflicts arose for Wren in a fantasy world with its own laws and society and politics. I loved the visual detail throughout the novel and the vivid sense of colour in the blues of the lake and the greens of the islands, and also sun and sand in Hales account of his home later on. Or the wedding scenes with colourful bright and detailed dresses against the dark of the black carriages and Black Guards. which contrasted perfectly. a great example of building upon a fantasy world in a sequel with the Celestans and their cultures and traditional wedding dresses. Or the Apricans with their Viking like nature and their sea faring ways to explore more to this world outside Maradis. I also loved the use of maps at the start which was a lovely touch and gave a clear location to the reader. Overall, a great read and I would give five stars.

The Confectioner’s Coup is the second book in The Confectioner Chronicles by Claire Luana. This book/series is an exceptionally good fantasy story, intricately woven with action, adventure, danger, mystery, suspense, humour, fun, heartache, tension, conflict, hostile enemies, disappearances, investigations, and a sprinkle of romance. I adore Ms. Luana’s books, and this series is no exception- so I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this book and continue the story. To say I had high expectations would be an understatement, but I just knew Ms. Luana wouldn’t let me down- and she definitely didn’t. The story is multi-faceted and incredibly detailed, with wonderful descriptions and masterful world-building bringing the whole story to life right before my eyes. The characters are so beautifully crafted- fully realised individuals who continue to develop and grow over the course of the story. Once again Ms. Luana proves her mastery of language and storytelling, bringing another fascinating and spellbinding story into ‘being’! I was so captivated by this wonderful story, that I read it all in one sitting- completely enthralled from beginning to end. All I can say is WOW! Bring on Book #3!
Thank you for creating this wonderful story/series Ms. Luana!

5 Stars
This was the continued story of Wren and I loved it as much as the first part of this series. She just can’t win when it comes to staying out of the line of fire with being framed for murder and getting out of that to now suspecting the king of being behind guild members being kidnapped and now the enemy has entered the city.
There was some parts of this story that made me so angry and then parts that were so so sad. You don’t really ever know what your gonna get when you open up one of this authors books and I love that.
Can’t wait for the next story in this series, I have so many questions about Hale and what his future holds as well as Wren and the Guild itself.
I Love this series and I love this author and I highly recommend starting at the beginning and reading these books and let me also mention that the covers on these books are completely awesome!!
The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioner Chronicles Book 2) By: Claire Luana 5 out of 5 stars
The story The Confectioner’s Coup (Confectioner Chronicles Book 2) by Claire Luana is a fantasy book. It one that has action, danger, romance, and mystery. I found myself turning pages trying to find out what was going to happen next. It is the next exciting book in a wonderful series. Wren has found herself with a bit of time on her hands. She is someone who has always been busy and it is an unusual feeling. Wren has survived being falsely framed for murder. Now situations occur that have her and others in harm’s way. There is a hostile army outside the gates. Will they take over the city? Members of the Guilds begin to disappear. Wren suspects who is behind the disappearances. Her investigation will have her facing old and new enemies. Will Wren find the truth behind the disappearances? Will she find the missing Guild members? How much danger is the city really in? Read this book to find out. I enjoyed reading about Wren and the relationship that she has with her boyfriend. This book has a bit more romance than the last one. This was a book that was a more emotional ride for me. I have grown to love many of the characters since reading the first book and now with this one I was not only rooting for them to succeed in whatever actions they take but also for them to find happiness in their lives. There are moments of suspense that had me having to tell myself to breathe. I love how the story has plenty of detail and I felt like I was right there with the characters. There are some twists and turns that I did not see coming. Once I started reading, I had a hard time putting down. Highly recommended.
I love this series! The plot is easy flowing and engaging. It pulls me in right from the beginning, sitting on the edge of your seat suspense. I highly recommend reading the previous books in this series to get the full enjoyment of the characters. In this story Wren suspects that the King is behind the disappearance of Guild members. Will she find them or will limits be pushed to far? I love Wren’s character, she is strong, fun and just a great character. Her story is a must read!
Wren thought things were bad when her boyfriend’s father tried to frame her for murder. But that was before a hostile army showed up at the city gates, ready to swallow Maradis whole. And before guild members began disappearing one by one–including the Confectioner’s Guild’s newest Gifted recruit.
Wren, suspecting the king is to blame for the disappearances, undertakes a dangerous investigation that sets her on a collision course with old and new enemies alike. Will she be able to find the missing guild members before tensions boil over into outright rebellion? Or are the guilds willing to go further than she ever realized to rid themselves of the king’s tyranny…
Don’t miss this thrilling Book 2 in the Confectioner Chronicles!
Claire Luana grew up reading everything she could get her hands on and writing every chance she could. Eventually, adulthood won out, and she turned her writing talents to more scholarly pursuits, going to work as a commercial litigation attorney. While continuing to practice law, Claire decided to return to her roots and try her hand once again at creative writing. She has written and published the Moonburner Cycle, the Confectioner Chronicles, the Knights of Caerleon trilogy with Jesikah Sundin, and is currently working on several new fantasy series. She lives in Seattle, Washington with her husband and two dogs. In her (little) remaining spare time, she loves to hike, travel, binge-watch CW shows, and of course, fall into a good book.
