A prophecy of death.
A weapon of hope. A sacrifice of love.

Kingdom of Citrine after the battle of Siren's Bay. Reeling from shocking

toward the man who betrayed her: King Kane Ravenwood.
Kane's presence is unavoidable as he travels
with Arwen and her friends to seek the Blade of the Sun, a legendary weapon
inextricably tied to her fate and the future of the realm. Even an uneasy truce
proves difficult as Arwen fights against her unresolved feelings for Kane, who
is willing to become darkness itself to protect her.
As Arwen faces creatures, foes, and magic beyond
her wildest imaginings, she must discover the secrets of her past to defeat the
monstrous Fae king Lazarus. But finding the light within might mean the death
of her and everyone she loves.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Ninth House, Hell Bent, and creator of the Grishaverse series comes a highly anticipated historical fantasy set during the Spanish Golden Age
In a shabby house, on a shabby street, in the new capital of
Madrid, Luzia Cotado uses scraps of magic to get through her days of endless
toil as a scullion. But when her scheming mistress discovers the lump of a
servant cowering in the kitchen is actually hiding a talent for little
miracles, she demands Luzia use those gifts to better the family's social
position.
What begins as simple amusement for the bored nobility takes
a perilous turn when Luzia garners the notice of Antonio Pérez, the disgraced
secretary to Spain's king. Still reeling from the defeat of his armada, the
king is desperate for any advantage in the war against England's heretic
queen—and Pérez will stop at nothing to regain the king's favor.
Determined to seize this one chance to better her fortunes,
Luzia plunges into a world of seers and alchemists, holy men and hucksters,
where the line between magic, science, and fraud is never certain. But as her
notoriety grows, so does the danger that her Jewish blood will doom her to the
Inquisition's wrath. She will have to use every bit of her wit and will to
survive—even if that means enlisting the help of Guillén Santangel, an
embittered immortal familiar whose own secrets could prove deadly for them both.
