Description
In this YA high fantasy, four magical rivals must work together to survive a deadly competition. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Gideon the Ninth.
Entombed beneath a tooth-filled sky, the world rots. At the heart of the decay world is Fourspires Castle, home to arcanists from the four disciplines--bone, blood, botany, and stone.
When the king is assassinated, chaos erupts. To crown a new ruler, the arcanists and their human familiars must kill or be killed in a bloody fight to the top of the Fifth Tower.
Amid the bloodshed, four rival familiars must work together . . . Taro, a bone witch still obsessed with her ex. Nixie, a botanical familiar who will do anything for her freedom. Elliot, a cursed and vengeful blood familiar. And Alix, a banished stone familiar shrouded in secrets.
Together, the four Wyrdos are not just fighting to survive, but to lift the curse on their world and find out what really lies beyond the decay of Fourspires.
