"Persephone's final battle awaits in this last installment of the epic YA romantasy trilogy, The Fractured Kingdom. For fans of Leigh Bardugo's Shadow and Bone series.
On the heels of a tragic discovery, Persephone was all but torn from Azriel's waiting arms. She now finds herself desperately alone, in terrible danger and burdened by responsibilities she would do almost anything to escape.
But some responsibilities are inescapable, and Persephone is not the girl she once was. Knowing that the clans are in mortal peril and that the realm is descending into chaos, she is fiercely determined to defeat Mordesius and set things to right for all people.
But she cannot imagine doing so without the handsome thief she has fallen helplessly, hopelessly in love with.
And so, armed with nothing but her wit, her dagger and her dauntless courage, Persephone races across the realm in search of Aziel and a path forward. As the stakes rise ever higher, loyalties shift, disasters strike and catastrophic grief gives way to inexpressible joy.
And just when it seems like it's finally over, the Fates play their cruelest trick of all . . .
In this epic, exhilarating final adventure in the Fractured Kingdom trilogy, destiny is coming for the girl who started it all."
"A twisty, dark-royalcore YA fantasy that takes the courtly intrigue of Hamlet and infuses it with the vicious ambition of the Boleyn family. For fans of House of the Dragon and readers who love The Cruel Prince, Red Queen, and Sara J. Maas.
Marry the Prince, then kill him…
Princess Madalina and her twin sister Inessa were born attached at the hand and separated right after. That's the only time the sisters ever held hands. The girls' personalities have been shaped in the Sinet family's drive to make their kingdom more than it is: unrespectable and loathsome, a damp place where deceit fills the palace walls like mold.
Madalina is different from her family. She's considered the weak one and only finds peace in the garden, tending the flowers, which are pejoratively called grave flowers because they are ideal for tortures and torments. Secretly, she dreams of escape and a new life.
Then Inessa, who was betrothed to Prince Hadrian, the heir of a wealthy kingdom, appears to Madalina as a ghost. She decries her murder and begs Madalina to free her from Bide, a terrifying place where souls get caught. Now Madelina must take her sister's place and carry out her secret mission: Inessa wasn't just sent to marry Prince Hadrien, but to kill him, too, and solidify a pact with his uncle.
On behalf of her family, Madelina must finish the job, knowing that whoever wanted Inessa dead is sure to wish her dead as well.
Step into the deadly and decedent world of Grave Flowers, a seductive, royalcore romantic fantasy from acclaimed author Autumn Krause that will enthrall readers at every turn."
