Synopsis

Everything has a price.In the kingdom of Axaria, a darkness has fallen. After defeating the evil mother who summoned an immortal demon to kill her, newly coronated Queen Asterin Faelenhart should have every reason to celebrate. Her kingdom is safe, forbidden magic eradicated, and her friends are alive. Except Asterin’s triumph has come at a devastating cost—forced to choose between a lifelong friend and true love, she’s lost both. But the shadows in Axaria have begun to stir once again, and no one is more starved for vengeance than Asterin …Yet it soon becomes clear that the shadows plaguing her kingdom are just the beginning. Another realm coexists with the mortal world—the beautiful, nightmarish Immortal Realm ruled by the wicked God of Shadow, King Eoin. When their paths entwine, Asterin realizes that Eoin possesses exactly what—and who—she seeks most. And the fates of all those that she holds dear—Orion, her missing Guardian; Luna, the friend she could not save; Harry, the demon who saved them all; and Quinlan, her beloved broken prince—ultimately rest in the god’s hands.But in a world of magic, not everyone is always as they seem. When shocking discoveries threaten everything and everyone that Asterin has sworn her life to protect, she won’t be the only person forced to make a choice … a choice that will change the mortal world forever.And maybe even destroy it.

It’s been a month since this book published. I never could have guessed what kind of world we would be living in when I was writing it, yet I can’t help but feel grateful that it’s arriving at a time where I think all of us need a little (or a lot!) of magic in our lives. I started working on this b......more

Quotes

“A gorgeous tale with a matryoshka of plots stacked within plots, a fierce rebellious princess, a cast of characters you will constantly be rooting for, stunning magic, and, of course, all the bloody demons you can shake a sword at!” Rin Chupeco, author of the Bone Witch series, on Shadow Frost

“Asterin Faelenhart is a heroine of a type I wish had been more common when I’d been a teenager—capable and imperfect, tender and sharp, with both sword and magic readied in the face of overwhelming odds. If Ma was this good at fifteen, the future of the genre is extremely bright.” Tamsyn Muir, author of Gideon the Ninth, on Shadow Frost

“Readers will enjoy the novel’s exciting action sequences and original mythology…A fantasy with an intriguing premise.” Kirkus Reviews on Shadow Frost

“You can expect scandal, evenly matched wit and skill, intense magic, and fierce romance!” The Nerd Daily on Shadow Frost

“Ma successfully uses the book’s multiple story lines to maintain a steady pace throughout, with intriguing developments and new revelations to drive the plot forward.” Kirkus Reviews
