Description

Two worlds threaten to crumble in the face of a common enemy in the epic conclusion to the Sunday Times bestselling Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy.

‘A GRIPPING PAGE-TURNER’ MARIE CLAIRE
‘THRILLING’ GLAMOUR

Once upon a time, an angel and a devil pressed their hands to their hearts and started the apocalypse.

Two worlds are poised on the brink of war. By way of a staggering deception, Karou has taken control of the chimaera rebellion and is intent on steering it away from dead-end vengeance. The future rests on her.

When the brutal angel emperor brings his army to the human world, Karou and Akiva are finally reunited – not in love, but in tentative alliance against their common enemy. It is a twisted version of their long-ago dream, and they begin to hope it might forge a way forward for their people. And, perhaps, for themselves.

But with bigger threats on the horizon, are Karou and Akiva strong enough to stand among the gods and monsters?
