Synopsis

Furyborn meets A Curse So Dark and Lonely in this thrilling fantasy about two powerful girls coming together to protect their beloved kingdom—from the author of Grace and Fury. Annalise may be cousin to the prince, but her past isn't what she claims, and she possesses a magic so powerful it takes all her strength to control it. Evra is a country girl, and has watched as each friend and family member came into their own magic, while hers remains dormant. But everything changes after Annalise loses control of herself and Evra begins experiencing the debilitating visions of a once-in-a-generation clairvoyant meant to serve the crown.
Thrown together at court, Evra and Annalise find that they have the same goal: to protect their kingdom from the powerful men who are slowly destroying it. But neither is quick to trust the other—Evra's visions suggest a threat to royal rule, and Annalise worries that her darkest secrets will be revealed. Their magic at odds, the young women circle each other, until the truth must come out. Full of intrigue, romance, and shocking twists, this gorgeously immersive fantasy will keep readers spellbound until the very last page.

I really loved this story, especially the character of Annalise. And by that I mean I didn't know what to think about her for the majority of the story; she's such a wonderfully gray character trying so hard to do good while desperately doing things all wrong. Kudos to Banghart for creating such a c......more

Goodreads review by Mary on February 23, 2021

ARC provided by Edelweiss: Stand alones can be so refreshing sometimes. Not having to wait years for each book. This stand alone was so good. I loved the characters, their complexity and struggles. You see the good and bad in them rather than just one is evil and one is not. I’m glad this type of wri......more
