SYNOPSIS:
In a realm ruled by warring noble Houses and the tyrannical Prime, power lies in god-shards – divine fragments that grant abilities to those who possess them. Revel’s brother was murdered in pursuit of one. For avenging him, her life is on the line.
Forced into a treacherous bargain, she must compete against House heirs in a bloody contest on behalf of her enemies and assassinate the realm’s most formidable alchemist, the Warbringer. Victory means her family’s freedom. Failure means death.
Set on a brutal race to find a god-shard that could shift the balance of the realms, the heirs want the win, but Revel just wants the kill. Except, the Warbringer isn’t the monster she was promised. Bound by secrets of his own, he is as dangerous as he is disarming.
With betrayals mounting and desire warring with duty, Revel must decide who to trust in a game where even the gods have their favourites.
In this dark, epic, worse-than-enemies-to-lovers romantasy debut, there’s no crueller weapon than love.
