In the swashbuckling finale to the Mistress of Bones duology, perfect for fans of The Bone Shard Daughter, a necromancer and the God of Death must outwit the Gods themselves – or end the world trying.
Necromancer Azul del Arroyo only wanted one thing: to steal her sister back from Death by reclaiming her sister's bones. But, after inadvertently uncovering a plot to reawaken the gods and suffering a great loss, she feels further from her goal than ever.
In exchange for a chance to save her sister, Azul's only choice is to work together with Death, now in Enjul's body, to uncover an underground group set on finding the rest of the gods in the blood-red city of Bremón. And with his mysterious motivations, silver tongue, and magnetic interest in Azul, Death does not make it easy.
Determined to get revenge on the Faceless Witch, Nereida, the Count, and Esparza also find their way to Bremón to join Azul, only to discover that Death is not the only god who has already awakened…and the rest of the gods are not as merciful.
Lies, games, and immortals collide in Maria Z. Medina's masterful follow-up to Mistress of Bones, where the only thing stronger than the divine is human will.
Born and raised in Spain, Maria Z. Medina loves everything speculative and fantasy. She is a writer and an avid video game player who discovered the joy of making up stories at a young age, aided by her grandmother's love for books and sci-fi/fantasy TV shows. Her short fiction has appeared in various fantasy and science-fiction publications.
