Brought to you by Penguin. The brand new epic romantasy series from the author of A Court This Cruel and Lovely, perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent, Jasmine Mas, and Rebecca Yarros. Narrated in duet style. Life in the perilous Thorn district is a constant battle for Arvelle and her younger...

I was kept ignorant and sheltered my whole life. Now that I’m free, I’ll never be coddled again. Even if the smoking hot werewolf king thinks coddling is perfectly acceptable. Because something’s hunting humans in my city. Something that kills like a werewolf, but displays those kills publicly–as if taunting the authorities.

Surviving the emperor’s sundering was just the beginning. This is the hotly anticipated sequel to the Sunday Times and New Yorks Times bestselling hit, We Who Will Die . . . Arvelle never expected to survive the emperor’s arena. She never expected to make a dangerous deal with his vampire...

In a world darkened by deceit, the truth is a light that won’t be dimmed—even when it illuminates Lorian’s betrayals more starkly than I could ever want to see. They call him the Bloodthirsty Prince. His reign of terror has left a trail of blood across this continent, a trail that intertwines with my own past—not even my parents were spared from his merciless slaughter. To save my brother’s life, I agreed to another bargain with the fae prince. Now, I’m forced to work with him, to travel to the fae lands, to spend my every waking moment with the man who betrayed me. 

Ein letzter großer Kampf um Krone und Königreich. Als Prisca die Zeit zurückdreht, um Lorian zu retten, bringt sie das Gleichgewicht der Welt ins Wanken. Die Magie kehrt zurück, doch sie verliert ihre eigene Gabe. Gleichzeitig droht eine uralte Gefahr das Reich zu verschlingen.

Some moments are too painful to be endured. Some moments will break you if you let them. And yet, I can’t afford to let anything break me, because we have one chance to win this war. One chance to create a better life for everyone across the four kingdoms.

I hunt demons. I don’t work for them. And I promised my mom one thing before she was murdered: Under no circumstances, would I ever go near the high demons. But I’ll break that promise over and over again if it helps me avenge her death. When my only lead turns to ash in the middle of demon territory, I’m suddenly a dead witch walking. Violence in Samael’s club is an automatic death sentence… unless he can use you.

Lucifer Morningstar took everything from me. My memories. My freedom. My powers. Now it’s my turn to take everything from him. I’ll make alliances with former enemies. I’ll hunt those who betrayed me. And I’ll make my grandfather regret ever learning of my existence. As Samael prepares for war, I’m learning there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to protect those I love. And this is our chance to free the underworld from Lucifer’s evil.

After the Mage Council publicly excised me, I've finally got my first real case. And I've even taken on a brand-new employee: a werewolf with impulse control issues. But my sister just lost everyone she loves, and she’s begging me to ask Samael for help. Whether I like it or not, I need Samael's resources. Because anyone who can kill that many witches has the kind of power we can't afford to ignore. And there's no point dodging the demon who manages to involve himself in all of my problems.

Ever since I got involved with the demons, my life has fallen apart. Now, I’m persona non grata with the mage council. And because of me, my sister is in danger. If that wasn’t bad enough, I’m suddenly responsible for protecting two gnome kids. But it gets worse. I’m learning that everything I thought I knew about myself was a lie. And the underhanded demon who bonded with me? Well, he’s convinced he can keep me. When ancient fae artifacts start going missing, I have to use every trick up my sleeve to locate them.

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned. When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden.

Surrounded by enemies, I've never been further from my crown… Or closer to death. Amidst a betrayal we couldn't have anticipated, I'll do whatever it takes to find my way back to Lorian—before his fury lays waste to this continent. Alliances are being forged and broken, our enemies are unifying, and Regner’s spiders are closer than ever before. We have only one chance to prevent him from attaining god-like powers and enslaving every human, fae, and hybrid across the four kingdoms.

Once, I helped save a kingdom. Now, I’m trapped in a prison of thorns and nightmares. My crime? Knowing the location of a power that could reshape the world—a grimoire I swore to protect with my life. That secret is the only thing keeping me alive while my captors wait for me to break. Until he arrives. Beautiful. Ruthless. Dark, inscrutable eyes. A dangerously wicked grin. But he’s not here to rescue me. He wants the grimoire for himself–and he’ll destroy anyone who stands in his way. My only choice is a fragile, temporary alliance with a man I can never trust.

I’ll travel through realms. I’ll tussle with mythical creatures. And I’ll hand over the things I value most—even if it means playing right into Lucifer’s hands. I never could have imagined I’d risk everything for a demon. But what Samael and I have will always be worth fighting for. Even if it means ending treaties, severing friendships, and alienating our allies. Because Samael is mine now. And I protect what’s mine.

What do you do when the demon you’re reluctantly obsessed with knows your deepest darkest secret? Every. Excruciating. Detail. If you’re smart, you push him away and bury yourself in work. Except that Vas isn’t the kind of guy who’ll allow me to hide from my feelings for long. Even if he did return from the underworld…different. Meanwhile, I’ve been ignoring all my instincts to hide my tech magic. Instead, I’m using it to help Evie and Kyla solve a high-profile kidnapping case

Stacia Stark presents Book 2 in the Kingdom of Death series...

I thought I had found a place to belong. But the werewolf king was lying to me–the one thing I begged him never to do. Turns out, I’m his mate. When I stalked out of his house–and out of his life–I figured I’d never see him again.

I can save the world. I just may have to ruin all of my friends’ lives in the process. Of all the people tasked with making sure the realms don’t burn and the worlds don’t end, I’m surely the most unlikely choice. Unfortunately for me, fate doesn’t care.

Prisca wurde gefangen genommen und wird gefoltert, in der Hoffnung, dass sie bricht und verrät, was mit der Sanduhr passiert ist und welche Pläne sie mit ihrem inneren Kreis geschmiedet hat. Inmitten eines Verrats, den niemand hatte vorhersehen können, schwört sich Prisca, einen Weg zurück zu Lorian zu finden, bevor seine Wut den gesamten Kontinent verwüstet. Gleichzeitig ist ihr bewusst: Prisca und ihre Truppe haben nur eine Chance, um Regner daran zu hindern, gottgleiche Kräfte zu erlangen und alle Menschen, Fae und Hybriden in den vier Königreichen zu versklaven.

Machtgierige Vampire, mörderische Intrigen – unsterbliche Liebe? Für Arvelle ist das Leben im Dorn Distrikt ein ständiger Überlebenskampf. Als letzte Rettung für ihren Bruder geht sie einen magischen Schuldschwur mit einem Vampir ein: Sie soll den Imperator töten, einen göttlich...
