The new novel by Alexandra Christo, author of the bestseller «To Destroy a Kingdom». It takes place in the same universe! A fantasy inspired by «Rapunzel» about a witch who can steal souls for an immortal king and a young...
man whose fate is intertwined with hers.
Young witch Celestia has spent her life serving the King of the Six Islands, stealing mortal souls for him. During the festival of prophecies, witches predict death for its participants. The kingdom's inhabitants can save their souls and challenge the immortal king. However, no one has succeeded in this yet.
Nox, a soldier in the royal army, is not prepared to die at the hands of the king and the witch. When his father was killed, the young man plotted revenge: he will steal the king's immortality and destroy his court, starting with Celestia.
One touch was enough for the girl to see their tightly intertwined lives. Nox and Celestia form a dangerous alliance to escape from the immortal king and together avoid a fate worse than death itself.
Everything is in the traditions of Alexandra Christo: a strong protagonist, dynamic battles, dazzling characters, and a richly detailed world.
Tropes: from hate to love, forbidden love, court intrigues, cursed witches, and ruthless kings.
