PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Shinn (Quatrain) carries readers away into a vivid new fantasy world where the five elements control everyone s lives. Alone and in shock after the death of her father, Zoe Ardelay is invited to the capital to become the king s fifth wife and create a much needed numerological balance both politically and at court, where the four queens vie to promote their children for the role of heir to the throne. Then Zoe learns she is the new prime of Lalindar clan, which saves her from the marriage, but thrusts her into a world of dangerous political scheming, secret agendas, and an increasingly risky attraction to royal adviser Darien Serlast. This entertaining and suspenseful story is full of lively characters, and the intriguing new system of magic and politics provides plenty of potential for sequels.
Customer Reviews
Unforgettable
Truly incredible. And it was wonderful to have a protagonist that’s my age — mid 20’s. I stayed up the entire night because I could not put this book down.
Brilliant!
Yet another fantastic story from Shinn. Cannot recommend it enough!
Awe-inspiring
One of the best books I have ever read. I was entranced with the tale from the beginning to the end, even on the thirteenth time.
