Bloodmarked

Bree Matthews has infiltrated the Legendborn Order and awakened a bloodline of her own: she is both a Merlin descended from Arthur's line and a Bloodcrafter descended from Vera, the enslaved woman who first bound her family to the demon war. As the living anchor of the Legendborn cycle, Bree finds herself protected — and controlled — by the Order's Regents, who see her unprecedented power as more threat than asset.

When Nick, the future king she loves, is taken, Bree defies the Order to go after him with her friends. Her magic is unstable and growing, her loyalties are split between the Order and the family lineage it long erased, and every answer she finds about her mother's death raises new questions about the war itself.

Bloodmarked continues Bree's reckoning with power, grief, and the racism embedded in the Order's history, as she learns to wield the ancestral magic within her without losing herself to it.
