Three young women struggle against a tyrannical king and the looming threat of war in this epic romantasy duology opener, perfect for fans of the Shadow and Bone trilogy.

A witch with no memory. A shapeshifter spy. And a rebel soldier determined to save them both.

In a kingdom where magic is punishable by fire, a girl wakes covered in spells, with no memory and no name. As strangers who seem to know her emerge, the ink-marked girl – Morgade – is thrust into the deadly world of magic and a past her own body won’t let her remember.

Isolde is a witch full of secrets who dreams of being queen. As magic dwindles across the realm, Isolde infiltrates the court of the tyrant King and spins webs of deceit and resistance, all while nursing an impossible love for his son.

Long before she was a commander, Nasim made a vow to the girl she loved that she would protect witchkind no matter the cost. Now that girl is dead, and Nasim’s childhood rival is likely to blame — if only she could recall what happened.

While the past tangles with the present, the future is on the brink of collapse. Morgade’s memories might hold the key, and it’s up to Nasim to help her remember, even if it destroys the attraction growing between them. As Isolde fights for power at court, danger lurks at every turn. Dying magic, missing gods, and kings who would burn them all. The three girls must risk losing everything to save their kingdom, including themselves, their hearts, and each other.
