Synopsis

The sixth novel in Jennifer L. Armentrout's blockbuster Blood and Ash series continues the sweeping saga of Poppy and Casteel, whose journey from a sheltered Maiden and a masked prince to the heart of a realm-shaking conflict has spanned kingdoms, gods, and wars. As the balance of power among the Primals shifts and old enemies gather, the choices facing Poppy and those she loves grow only more perilous.

Picking up the threads left by the earlier books, this instalment returns to Armentrout's richly built world of Atlantia and the Realms, blending high-stakes fantasy, court and divine intrigue, and the passionate central romance that has made the series a global bestseller.

Longtime readers should come to this book having read the previous Blood and Ash novels — and, ideally, the connected Flesh and Fire titles — as the story builds directly on everything that came before.
