Podrobnosti o audioknize
The second novel in the And I Darken series that reads like HBO’s Game of Thrones . . . if it were set in the Ottoman Empire--"absolutely devastating in the best way" (Kirkus, starred review) by #1 New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White.
“A+, 5 knives.”—Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling author of The Isles of the Gods
“Fierce, epic, and crazy fun.”—Melissa Albert, New York Times bestselling author of The Hazel Wood
A SISTER FILLED WITH RAGE
Lada Dracul has no allies. No crown. All she has is what she’s always had: herself. After failing to secure the Wallachian throne, Lada is out to punish anyone who dares cross her. She storms the countryside with her men, but brute force isn’t getting Lada what she wants. And thinking of Mehmed, the defiant Ottoman sultan, brings little comfort to her thorny heart. There’s no time to wonder whether he still thinks about her, even loves her. She left him before he could leave her.
HER BROTHER CAUGHT IN THE CROSSHAIRS
Lada needs the support of her diplomatic younger brother, Radu. But Mehmed has sent him to Constantinople—and it’s no diplomatic mission. Mehmed wants control of the city, and Radu has earned an unwanted place as a double-crossing spy behind enemy lines. And for the first time in his life, when Lada asks him for help, he refuses . . . leading his sister to make the darkest of choices.
THE ULTIMATE POWER PLAY
Torn between loyalties to faith, to the Ottomans, and to Mehmed, Radu knows he owes Lada nothing. If she dies, he could never forgive himself—but if he fails in Constantinople, would Mehmed ever forgive him?
As nations fall around them, the Dracul siblings must decide: what will they sacrifice to fulfill their destinies? Empires will topple, thrones will be won . . . and souls will be lost.
★ "Gorgeous, rich, and rewarding."—Booklist, starred review
A Teen Choice Book Award nominee!
