In the sequel to And Break the Pretty Kings, crown princess Mirae continues to unravel her tangled future to save her queendom – perfect for fans of This Savage Song and Six Crimson Cranes.
After her fraught journey to save her queendom, Mirae has finally cast the Netherking back into his dark cage in the Deep.
But his imprisonment brings her no peace – because in his final schemes, the Netherking managed to possess her beloved older brother, Minho, and it is his body that languishes in the Deep, tormented by his possessor.
Mirae is determined to free her brother and destroy the Netherking once and for all. But when the Netherking steals the all-powerful pearl of Seolla, all of Mirae’s careful plans are destroyed. She must set out once more to stop him, slipping in and out of the future with her divine powers as she races a path to the heavens itself.
When she discovers the truth about the Netherking’s intentions, and learns that the only way to destroy him is with a sacrifice larger than she can bear, Mirae begins to doubt her free will and even the fate of the entire peninsula and the gods beyond.
Dark and thrilling, this action-packed sequel to And Break the Pretty Kings pulls readers deeper into its captivating world of lavish, fantastical magic and dangerous secrets, as Mirae faces overwhelming odds to save her queendom – and an impossible choice.
