The first in an fantasy duology inspired by West African folklore in which a grieving crown princess and a desperate refugee find themselves on a collision course to murder each other despite their growing attraction.

For Malik, the Solstasia festival is a chance to escape his war-stricken home and start a new life with his sisters in the prosperous desert city of Ziran. But when a vengeful spirit abducts Malik’s younger sister, Nadia, as payment into the city, Malik strikes a fatal deal—kill Karina, Crown Princess of Ziran, for Nadia’s freedom.

But Karina has deadly aspirations of her own. Her mother, the Sultana, has been assassinated; her court threatens mutiny; and Solstasia looms like a knife over her neck. Grief-stricken, Karina decides to resurrect her mother through ancient magic . . . requiring the beating heart of a king. And she knows just how to obtain one: by offering her hand in marriage to the victor of the Solstasia competition.

When Malik rigs his way into the contest, they are set on a course to destroy each other. But as attraction flares between them and ancient evils stir, will they be able to see their tasks to the death?



Blue Butterfly (bluebutterfly8) | 1164 comments I haven't gotten my copy of this book yet but once I do I will join in


Farren (mmmcookies) | 351 comments I was up to chapter 13 I think, 37%

I'm enjoying this so far. At this point in the story, it's following a very generic YA fantasy plotline and I haven't seen much of the folklore that inspired it. But I have barely gotten into any magic or even past what is detailed in the synopsis, so I'm excited to see where this book goes. I really like both of the main characters too.

I am listening to this on audio. What format will you guys be reading?

Farren (mmmcookies) | 351 comments I took a break for a few days but my loan is almost up so now I'm close to done with it. No lie, the first time I heard the title I thought it was the new ACOTAR novel lol I love the cover so much though! This book reminds me of An Ember in the Ashes a lot, but like not as good because for me that book is hard to top
