CLAIM THE SWORD OR BREAK IT . . .

A former squire fights for hope amid blood and chaos.
A grieving immortal strives to fulfil a broken oath.
An outcast assassin rages against her vicious past.
An old sorceress summons a mighty power.

And a pirate's daughter takes up her father's sword.

Together they must assemble a last-ditch resistance to face a teenage queen and her tyrant consort before they can unleash what waits in the shadows trapped between the worlds they are recklessly breaking open.

From a sprawling cast of knights, witches, monsters, gods, and dragons to an exquisitely slow-burn villain romance, Blade Breaker is an unmissable YA epic fantasy perfect for fans of the huge worlds of Sarah J Maas and the found family quests of V. E. Schwab.

Rezensionen

Electrifying... World building to rival the likes of George R.R. Martin GUARDIAN

"[Blade Breaker] builds to a nail-biting reckoning of a climax... Will leave readers gasping for more." - Kirkus Reviews

"The mix of politicking and real physical fighting makes this sequel gripping, while the relationships between the odd band of Companions and their enemies have depth... fans of Realm Breaker (2021) will clamor for it." - Booklist

"Aveyard has nailed the balance of political maneuvering and action sequences, avoiding the middle book slump...Aveyard's fans will be awaiting this sequel." - School Library Journal

Praise for Realm Breaker:
"The entire time I was reading REALM BREAKER, I

wanted one thing: for the book to never end. It is classic yet groundbreaking, romantic yet edgy, a rollicking adventure that carries you along at a relentless pace. A true fantasy masterpiece." - Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the An Ember in the Ashes series.

"Set in a sprawling world of warring empires and hair-raising magic that any reader would want to get lost in, REALM BREAKER is a fantasy fan's dream, injected with Aveyard's trademark action, heart, and razor-sharp characters." - Roseanne A. Brown, New York Times Bestselling Author of A Song of Wraiths and Ruin

"Realm Breaker is the kind of book you take with you to your favorite reading chair. The world is rich and built with deep care; the characters are complex and flawed; the story is filled with the kind of sweeping scale that fantasy does best. This is a new classic." - Marie Lu, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Skyhunter

"An enthralling adventure, a richly imagined world, and the most impossible odds combine to make Realm Breaker an addictive, tightly-paced gem of a book. Readers will delight in Aveyard's bewitching new beginning, all at once epic in scope and intimate in detail. It's the adventure I was desperate to go on as a teenager and the kind of story I eagerly devour as an adult." - Emma Theriault, author of Rebel Rose

"There are a wide variety of action scenes, daring escapes, and betrayals...exquisite descriptions and clashing motivations result in a nuanced, sprawling realm. An epic series opener of old-school high fantasy catering to modern audiences." - Kirkus Reviews

"Like Aveyard's hit Red Queen books, this series starter is a hefty tome with well-mapped details of lands, monsters, and people. Rotating narrators keep the story fresh and leave readers wanting more." - Booklist

Praise for the Red Queen series: "A sizzling, imaginative thriller, where romance and revolution collide, where power and justice duel. It's exhilarating. Compelling. Action-packed. Unputdownable." - USA Today "Aveyard's "little lightning girl" remains a relatable and deeply flawed heroine... Aveyard adeptly sets the scene for a fourth book to follow, amid a war not yet won." - Publishers Weekly "Another devastating cliff-hanger ending will leave readers hungry for the final volume." - Booklist "Simmering with internal conflict and well-devised courtly scheming." - Kirkus Reviews "Breakneck pace and engaging characters." - School Library Journal
- USA Today
