Publisher Description
#1 International Bestseller!
"Dark and dangerous and teeming with romance." ―Rachel Gillig, New York Times bestselling author of Two Twisted Crowns
"Luxuriantly poetic [and] extravagantly sexy" —Shelf Awareness
Set in a world of perilous magic and moonlit forests, this seductive romantic fantasy debut tells the story of a defiant changeling, her cursed sister, and the dangerous fae lord she must defeat to save her family.
In a kingdom where magic has been lost, Fia is a rare changeling, left behind by the wicked Fair Folk when they stole the high queen's daughter, Eala, and retreated behind the locked gates of the Folk realm. Rather than leave Fia an outcast, the queen takes her in and trains her to be a spy.
When a hidden gate to the realm is discovered, Fia is tasked by the queen to retrieve the princess and break her curse. Accompanying Fia is Prince Rogan, her dearest childhood friend—and Eala’s betrothed. As they journey through the forests of the Folk, Fia’s mission is complicated by her feelings for Rogan…and an unexpected attraction to the fae lord holding Eala captive.
Soon, Fia begins to question the truth of her origins and the reality of her mission, but time is running out to break Eala's curse. And unraveling the secrets of the past might destroy everything Fia has come to love.
Customer Reviews
A Feather So Black
I feel like the author CRUSHED both of these books. The story is interesting, full of action and conflict, everything is so deep and descriptive. Just beautiful books. Reread this one before reading ‘A Crown So Silver’ and so glad I did. Found more details, used the glossary much more. Ugh. Loved it.
Purple prose galore
If you took out all of the purple prose out of this book, it’d be half the page count or even less. The pacing was sluggish and nothing really happened until the last 50 pages. A whole year goes by in the book and barely anything gets accomplished by the MC. Most of this book is just Fia gardening. So, if you’re into that then this is the book for you.
Loved it
Read it in a day. Amazing detail. I can’t believe it was only 2.99$ I would paid triple the price for a book this good. Can’t wait for the next one. Amazing world building, beautiful vocabulary. Couldn’t put it down
