The stunningly original, must-read fantasy follows two fiercely independent young women, centuries apart, who hold the power to save their world...or doom it.

When assassins ambush her best friend, Rielle Dardenne risks everything to save him, exposing herself as one of a pair of prophesied queens: a queen of light, and a queen of blood. To prove she is the Sun Queen, Rielle must endure seven elemental magic trials. If she fails, she will be executed...unless the trials kill her first.

One thousand years later, the legend of Queen Rielle is a fairy tale to Eliana Ferracora. A bounty hunter for the Undying Empire, Eliana believes herself untouchable-until her mother vanishes. To find her, Eliana joins a rebel captain and discovers that the evil at the empire's heart is more terrible than she ever imagined.

As Rielle and Eliana fight in a cosmic war that spans millennia, their stories intersect, and the shocking connections between them ultimately determine the fate of their world-and of each other.

Loved the idea, just did not like any of the characters and the constant POV swapping.

Great Concept, Poor execution

I have listened to many books this year and this is probably in my top 3 series. I know it’s not continued yet but I’m blown away. Fiona Hardingham is flawless at her narration, she captures each characters qualities so very well.

As for the story I am so blown away by the craftsmanship Claire has done, just wow. I love the division of the story between Rielle and Eliana. I could envision the cords winding together bringing us full circle without feeling like it was too easy or too predictable. I felt enthralled the entire time, the sacrifices Eliana made were heart wrenching and I loved her spunky character, sure she’s a murderer but she’s all the things she didn’t want to be, which is a good thing. Rielle I think it’s easy to hate her on precedent and sometimes she makes it too easy, although there are times I find I enjoy her, I still want to shake her until her teeth pop out like tic-tacs. But as with Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo there’s always the tether to the darkness that can prove impossible to ignore especially when the darkness is a hot and manipulative male, so it’s hard to blame her.

I truly am glad I found this series and can’t wait for the second installment! Thank you Claire! 💙

Wow.
