THE SHARPEST WILL
SURVIVESharp, funny, sexy and dangerous, and packed full of irresistible twists, Thorn Season is an unforgettable novel that marks the introduction of a major new YA voice and will be the romantasy debut of 2025.In the Kingdom of Daradon, a persecuted few are Wielders - able to exert a physical power that extends beyond their visible body: a shimmering tendril that can pick a lock, a gentle coil that reaches out to give a loving caress, or an inexorable rope that will kill a man before he knows it is around his neck.
Feared and mistrusted for this ability, Wielders have always been Hunted.Alissa Paine - heiress of a noble lineage, daughter of a Hunter family - is also a Wielder. And as she approaches her eighteenth Season, Alissa knows she has escaped execution so far only through painful self-control, and the fragile efforts of her beloved father.Summoned to the harsh and glittering royal court for the debutante season, Alissa finds herself trapped in a web of hidden intentions - and caught between two equally dangerous men.
One is a brutal ruler with the handsome face of a fairytale prince, who would see her destroyed in an instant if the truth were known - and the other a beguiling foreign ambassador with secret agendas of his own.It's Rose Season at the palace, but Alissa knows that survival will depend on being the most vicious of the thorns....
