An instant New York Times bestseller!

The first in a gripping fantasy duology inspired by West African folklore in which a grieving crown princess and a desperate refugee find themselves on a collision course to murder each other despite their growing attraction??from debut author Roseanne A. Brown. This New York Times bestseller is perfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi, Renée Ahdieh, and Sabaa Tahir.

For Malik, the Solstasia festival is a chance to escape his war-stricken home and start a new life with his sisters in the prosperous desert city of Ziran. But when a vengeful spirit abducts his younger sister, Nadia, as payment to enter the city, Malik strikes a fatal deal??kill Karina, Crown Princess of Ziran, for Nadia's freedom.

But Karina has deadly aspirations of her own. Her mother, the Sultana, has been assassinated; her court threatens mutiny; and Solstasia looms like a knife over her neck. Grief-stricken, Karina decides to resurrect her mother through ancient magic . . . requiring the beating heart of a king. And she knows just how to obtain one: by offering her hand in marriage to the victor of the Solstasia competition.

When Malik rigs his way into the contest, they are set on a heart-pounding course to destroy each other. But as attraction flares between them and ancient evils stir, will they be able to see their tasks to the death?

"Magic creates a centuries-long divide between peoples in this stunning debut novel inspired by North African and West African folklore. An action-packed tale of injustice, magic, and romance, this novel immerses readers in a thrilling world and narrative reminiscent of Children of Blood and Bone." (Publishers Weekly, "An Anti-Racist Children's and YA Reading List")… (mer)

Very slow-paced but intrigue steadily builds throughout the story. The male lead, Malik, is soft-hearted and always messing things up while Karina is clever and headstrong but bratty. At times, I thought certain scenes dragged, but the ending was good. I needed more time with the Kestrel to feel anything for her. I know her death was the catalyst for Karina to become Sultana, but it felt underdeveloped. Also, sorry, but I felt for Leila. So many times she had to remind him to get his butt into gear.

I think it’s lovely the book includes content warnings at the beginning. ( )

I really enjoyed this book, but I just wasn't particularly attached to any of the characters which sucked. ( )

*sobs loudly* This was soooo amazing but do not read it yet people. I'm so desperate to read the next book but it doesn't even have a title yet! Save yourselves the absolute agony and wait until book two exists so you can read them back to back. Full review to come when I've recovered from my depths of despair. ( )

It was slow at first and I couldn't figure out how the dilemma would be solved. It really picked up and had lots of twists. Then I got near the end and realized that it was the end of the book but NOT the end of the story. Noooo!!! Where's the sequel??!! ( )
