The Price For Peace
Descrizione dell’editore
How do you keep fighting when you've already been claimed?
When sixteen-year-old Elise is ripped from her home and taken to the royal palace as a permanent 'guest', she thinks her life is over.
Little does she know it has only just begun…
After befriending a group of other captives, including the headstrong Will, Elise finds herself swept away to a world she never knew existed—polished, sculpted, and refined until she can hardly recognize her own reflection. She should be happy to have escaped the poverty of her former life. But she knows a dark truth.
The palace is a dream on the surface, but a nightmare underneath.
With a dwindling population, the royals have imprisoned the teenagers to marry and breed. Only seven days remain of freedom before they will be selected by a courtier and forever claimed.
Danger lurks around every corner. The only chance of escape is death.
But when the day of the claiming finally arrives…the world will never be the same.

Recensioni dei clienti
A really amazing story!
This story is really interesting and original, a new series with characters well drawn with W.J. May’s usual deep psychological skill.
It’s a really amazing story! May describes a dystopian frightening world in which the main character, Elise, is forced to comply to its abnormal rules and still she keeps safe her inwardness. Each character is quite different one from the other. It’s a story which captures every reader, the young and the adult. I’m waiting for this series’ next book!
