An instant New York Times bestseller!
Love and duty collide in this richly imagined young adult debut about a witch whose dark powers put her at the center of a brewing war between the only family she's ever known and the enemy who makes her question everything. Featuring a brand-new short story and character art!
Monster. Butcher. Bloodwinn.
Ranka is tired of death. All she wants is to be left alone, living out her days in Witchik's wild north with the coven that raised her, attempting to forget the horrors of her past. But when she is named Bloodwinn, the next treaty bride to the human kingdom of Isodal, her coven sends her south with a single directive: kill him. Easy enough, for a blood-witch whose magic compels her to kill.
Except the prince is gentle, kind, and terrified of her. He doesn't want to marry Ranka; he doesn't want to be king at all. And it's his sisterthe wickedly smart, infuriatingly beautiful Princess Aramiswho seems to be the real threat.
But when witches start turning up dead, murdered by a mysterious, magical plague, Aramis makes Ranka an offer: help her develop a cure, and in return, she'll help Ranka learn to contain her deadly magic. As the coup draws nearer and the plague spreads, Ranka is forced to question everything she thought she knew about her power, her past, and who she's meant to fight for. Soon, she will have to decide between the coven that raised her and the princess who sees beyond the monster they shaped her to be.
But as the bodies pile up, a monster may be exactly what they need.

Ich würde sechs Sterne geben, wenn ich könnte. Ich liebe alles an diesem Buch. Die Charaktere und ihre Entwicklungen, das Storytelling.
Ranka ist eine vielschichtige, starke Protagonistin, welche im Laufe ihres Lebens vor viele Herausforderungen gestellt wird. Sowohl gegenwärtiges als auch vergängliches, was ihr wiederfahren ist habe ich neugierig in mich aufgesogen. Die Zwillinge Aramis und Galen sind ein tolles und gleichzeitig typisch geschwisterliches Gespann, was mir auch zusammen mit Percy im Team sehr gefallen hat. Sie sind mir alle sehr sympathisch und ich hatte das Gefühl, als wäre ich Teil ihrer Gruppe und von ihren Missionen bis hin zu ihren Trainingseinheiten dabei gewesen.
Für mich einfach ein Herzensbuch. Würde mich sehr freuen, wenn es irgendwann mal ins deutsche übersetzt werden würde und ich es dann meinen deutsch lesenden Freundinnen empfehlen kann.
