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, Renee 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") Don't miss
the second book in this epic duology, A Psalm of Storms and
Silence!
