SAVE THE WORLD OR END IT . . .
Even pirate's daughter Corayne an-Amarat can feel something is seriously wrong with the world, tucked away in her small town at the edge of the sea.
Then fate knocks on her door in the form of an immortal warrior and a lethal assassin, who tell her she is the last of an ancient bloodline with a secret power singing in her veins.
They also tell her that a vengeful mercenary wielding a stolen mythical sword with a plan to slice open the very walls between the worlds is raising an army unlike any seen in history.
He will break the realm itself to claim it for his own - and only Corayne can stop him.
From a sprawling cast of knights, witches, monsters, gods, and dragons to an exquisitely slow-burn villain romance, Realm Breaker is an unmissable YA epic fantasy perfect for fans of the huge worlds of Sarah J Maas and the found family quests of V. E. Schwab.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Only descendants of Old Cor, an ancient fallen empire, can manipulate the Spindle gates that connect Allward to other worlds. One such individual, Cortael, believes the Spindles should stay shut, as they have for centuries—not all realms are friendly, after all, and some contain monsters. Cortael's twin, Taristan, however, aims to open as many Spindles as he can find, destabilizing Allward so that the evil entity he worships, What Waits, can take over. When Taristan kills Cortael during a battle for control of a Spindle, Cortael's ally Domacridhan—an immortal "Elder" whose ancestors hail from another land—tracks down Corayne an-Amarat, the 17-year-old daughter of Cortael and a notorious pirate queen, and persuades her to help stop her uncle. Aiding their quest are 17-year-old squire Andry Trelland and 30-year-old assassin Sorasa Sarn, among others. Insufficiently elucidated worldbuilding and late-defined stakes hinder this expansive, action-packed series launch from Aveyard (the Red Queen series). Some point-of view characters lack depth, but the ensemble cast, whose skin tones range from golden to dark brown, features several fierce females whose uncertain fates may lure readers back for the sequel. Ages 13–up.
