Publisher Description
An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!
“Deonn expertly weaves together a universe that both shines a light on the pervasive nature of racism and also harnesses the complexity of Black identity within this space. Deonn writes so much more than simple fantasies or Arthurian retellings.” —Booklist (starred review)
The “worthy successor to an explosive debut” (Kirkus Reviews)—the New York Times bestselling and award-winning Legendborn—perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Margaret Rogerson!
The shadows have risen, and the line is law.
All Bree wanted was to uncover the truth behind her mother’s death. So she infiltrated the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur’s knights—only to discover her own ancestral power. Now, Bree has become someone new:
A Medium. A Bloodcrafter. A Scion.
But the ancient war between demons and the Order is rising to a deadly peak. And Nick, the Legendborn boy Bree fell in love with, has been kidnapped.
Bree wants to fight, but the Regents who rule the Order won’t let her. To them, she is an unknown girl with unheard-of power, and as the living anchor for the spell that preserves the Legendborn cycle, she must be protected.
When the Regents reveal they will do whatever it takes to hide the war, Bree and her friends must go on the run to rescue Nick themselves. But enemies are everywhere, Bree’s powers are unpredictable and dangerous, and she can’t escape her growing attraction to Selwyn, the mage sworn to protect Nick until death.
If Bree has any hope of saving herself and the people she loves, she must learn to control her powers from the ancestors who wielded them first—without losing herself in the process.

SELWYN KANE <3
i literally hate myself so much for reading this book so fast and so soon. i should’ve waited until the third book came out or something because i literally finished it 2 days after it came out. now i’m stuck with a MAJOR cliff hanger☹️ literally such and amazing book.. Brees an amazing character, the storyline is perfect, and selwyn kane is hot. also william is the most precious thing on this earth, can’t forget about my girl alice, she was fresh air throughout the book. honestly just read it, it’s soo good. but if ur impatient like me just wait til she announces when the 3rd book comes out cuz i honestly can’t wait this long😩😩
Please Read this Series
Wow! This was such a good book! Also 5 stars is not to be taken lightly in my opinion so this is top tier for me and is probably one of the best books of all time.
I did not see where this book was going whatsoever and all the plot twists got me.*sigh*
Tracy is so good at writing 6d characters, and yes you read that right, 6d characters. Even Alice who got less page time then some characters felt so real. It feels like I have met each and every one of them and saw them with my own eyes. Especially Sel, who everyone except for me was mad at half the time.
The pacing was phenomenal to the point where I would read a chapter and then 45 minutes later I had read 5 chapters without realizing I had even read for more than 15 minutes.
I had blurry tear filled eyes at multiple points in this story which is also not normal for me. Every joy and sorrow was conveyed so well that I couldn’t help feeling it myself.
Now I just have to wait till March for the next one so please excuse me while I go and stare at a wall for an hour trying to figure out what to do with my life.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy the book!
Beautiful and heart wrenching.
This book had me so emotional. One moment I’m cheering for Bree and Sel and the next I’m sobbing when Bree is speaking to her mother. This series is an emotional rollercoaster I don’t want to get off. Can’t wait for the next book and I can’t recommend this series enough. Just wow!
