ABOUT THE BOOK
The fae have magic.
The humans have machines.
Neither has mercy.
A long, bitter war against the fae stole Zari’s future. Once a wealthy young aristocrat engaged to an officer, now she’s struggling to pay bills, working as a nurse in a run-down metropolitan hospital.
When Tivre, a fae mage, appears and tells her that her long-lost father is still alive, imprisoned by the fae Queen, Zari agrees to a dangerous bargain. She will infiltrate the Queen’s court as one of her magically bound Oathborn soldiers and in return, Tivre will help rescue her father.
But as their journey grows more deadly, with both human and fae soldiers pursuing them, Zari quickly realizes she may be a pawn rather than a partner in Tivre’s plots. His only goal is to prevent another war, regardless of what, or who, he might need to sacrifice. If she has any hope of surviving, Zari must unravel the secrets of the past, create new alliances, and claim a destiny that was never supposed to be hers.
What began as a rescue will become a revolution.A thrilling start to a new fantasy series, perfect for fans of Six of Crows, Swordheart, and Once Upon a Broken Heart.
