The intoxicating and bloodthirsty finale to the New York Times bestselling The Cruel Prince, nominated for the CILIP CARNEGIE MEDAL 2019, and New York Times bestseller The Wicked King
After being pronounced Queen of Faerie and then abruptly exiled by the Wicked King Cardan, Jude finds herself unmoored, the queen of nothing. She spends her time with Vivi and Oak, watching reality television, and doing odd jobs, including squaring up to a cannibalistic faerie.
When her twin sister Taryn shows up asking a favour, Jude jumps at the chance to return to the Faerie world, even if it means facing Cardan, who she loves despite his betrayal. When a dark curse is unveiled, Jude must become the first mortal Queen of Faerie and break the curse, or risk upsetting the balance of the whole Faerie world.
Fate binds two Black teenagers as they strike a dangerous alliance
to hunt down the ancient creature terrorising their home. Magic
doesn't exist in the broken city of Lkossa anymore, especially for
girls like sixteen-year-old Koffi. Indentured to the notorious
Night Zoo, she cares for its fearsome and mythical creatures to pay
off her family's debts and secure their freedom. But when her loved
ones' safety is threatened by the Zoo's cruel master, Koffi
unleashes a power she doesn't fully understand . . . As the son of
a decorated hero, Ekon is all but destined to become an elite
warrior. Until a fire at the Night Zoo upends his certain future
and, on the brink of his final rite of passage, Ekon is cast out -
his reputation left in tatters. For Koffi and Ekon, the outlook is
bleak - unless they can capture the Shetani, the vicious monster
that plagues their city, and recover their futures. But defeating
the Shetani is something no one has yet achieved, though many have
tried. As Koffi and Ekon enter the Greater Jungle, a world steeped
in wild magic and untold dangers, the tentative alliance between
them is tested to the extreme. The hunt begins - but are they the
hunters or the hunted? This is an extraordinary adventure inspired
by Pan-African mythology, from exciting debut author Ayana Gray.
