Amelia Hartwood learned how to turn monsters into meals. Now she must learn how to feed a kingdom.

Karden Gate is under siege.

The Demon King's forces have learned that hunger can be a sharper weapon than steel. Grain is sabotaged. Cooking fires are attacked. Refugees panic. Monsters are driven toward the walls.

Amelia answers with a promise:

No one goes hungry today.

What begins as a desperate rule during a siege soon becomes something much larger.

Granaries must be shared. Prisoners must be fed. Roads must carry bread as reliably as armies carry weapons. Humans, orcs, dwarves, elves, demons, and dragons must decide whether former enemies can live under the same rules—and eventually sit at the same table.

Beyond the border, the Demon King watches Grilia grow.

He begins to understand that Amelia's greatest weapon is no longer the holy sword.

It is a system that turns food into trust, trust into cooperation, and cooperation into a kingdom.

From the Dragon Mountains to the Obsidian Plains, from the Hunger March to the Bread Road, Amelia and her companions push deeper into a war where victory cannot be measured only by enemies defeated.

Because defeating the Demon King is only part of the problem.

Someone still has to feed the people tomorrow.

A heroine who once wondered how monsters would taste must now decide what kind of kingdom should rise when the fighting ends.

The Barbeque Heroine: Queen of Grilia, Book Two concludes Amelia Hartwood's humorous culinary fantasy adventure with dragons, demons, war, shared granaries, unlikely alliances, kingdom building, and the long road toward the first Queen of Grilia.
