Descripción editorial
The Cruel Prince meets Ninth House in this dangerously romantic dark academia fantasy, where a lost heiress must infiltrate an arcane society and live with the vampire she suspects killed her family and kidnapped her sister.
It began long before my time, but something has always hunted our family.
Orphaned heiress Kidan Adane grew up far from the elusive society of vampires she was born into, where human bloodlines gain power through vampire companionship. She is obsessively protective, mildly nihilistic, and willing to do anything to save her loved ones. When her sister, June, disappears, Kidan is convinced a vampire stole her—the same vampire bound to her family bloodline, the cruel yet captivating Susenyos Sagad.
To find June, Kidan must infiltrate the elite Uxlay University—where students study to inherit their family fortune and select vampire companions. Kidan must study an arcane philosophy, work with four enigmatic students, and survive living with Susenyos—even as he does everything to drive her away. It doesn’t matter that Susenyos’s wickedness speaks to Kidan's own violent nature and tempts her to surrender to a life of darkness. She must find her sister and kill Susenyos at all costs. When a murder mirroring June’s disappearance shakes Uxlay, Kidan sinks further into the ruthless underworld of vampires, risking her very soul. There she discovers a centuries-old threat. And June could be at the center of it. To save her sister, Kidan must bring Uxlay to its knees and either break free from the horrors of her own actions or embrace the dark entanglements of love—and the blood it requires.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Eighteen-year-old twins Kidan and June Adane, who are of Ethiopian heritage, have always known that there is danger lurking in the dark. Dranaics, or vampires, worldwide have been magically constrained to feed only from members of particular families. These families also hold immense influence over society and their vampiric counterparts. As descendants of these infamous bloodlines, the twins have been raised away from vampire society. But when June goes missing, Kidan needs whatever power she can garner to find her. Using cruel means, Kidan learns the name of June's kidnapper: Susenyos Sagad, a Black dranaic and the only one still tethered to House Adane. To keep Susenyos from usurping her family's power, Kidan enrolls in the elite school he attends: Uxlay University. There she searches for her sister and finds herself inexplicably drawn to Susenyos, the society that offers her tremendous strength, and the violence she believes to reside within her. Debut author Girma reels readers in with a promise of dark and dangerous romances, then ensnares them with fully fleshed-out morally gray characters and the uniquely rendered lore and politics of the trilogy opener's vampiric world. Ages 14–up.
