"The ruthless, remarkable world youâve been waiting for." âChloe Gong, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of These Violent Delights
A desperate girl at a cutthroat magical academy faces a choice between life and death: become an assassin for the enchanted elite or watch her decaying body draw its last breath.
Anabelle Gage is trapped in a male body, and itâs rotting from the inside out. But Ana canât afford to escape it, even as the wealthiest in Caimor buy and discard expensive designer bodies without a thought. When she fails to gain admittance to the prestigious Paragon Academyâand access to the healthy new forms the school provides its studentsâher final hope implodes. Now without options, Ana must use her illusion magic to try to steal a healthy chassisâbefore her own kills her.
But Ana is caught by none other than the headmaster of Paragon Academy, who poses a brutal ultimatum: face execution for her crime or become a mercenary at his command. Revolt brews in Caimor's smog-choked underworld, and the wealthy and powerful will stop at nothing to take down the rebels and the infamous dark witch at their helm, the Black Wraith.
With no choice but to accept, Ana will steal, fight, and kill her way to salvation. But her survival depends on a dangerous band of renegades: an impulsive assassin, a brooding bombmaker, and an alluring exile who might just spell her ruin. As Ana is drawn into a tangled web of secrets, the line between villain and hero shattersâand Ana must decide which side is worth dying for. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo, Brandon Sanderson, Lev Grossman, and R.F. Kuang.
"Totally gripping and overflowing with delicious angst." âAlice Oseman, bestselling creator of Heartstopper
"A twisty, dark academia fantasy . . . I was hooked from the very first page." âMarie Lu, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Red City
