Synopsis
From the bestselling author of Threads that Bind and Hearts that Cut comes a brand-new compulsive romantasy about a girl obsessed with the dark and the shadowy magical prince she falls in love with, perfect for fans of Holly Black and Laini Taylor. The dark has come alive . . . Six years ago, vicious creatures began to crawl out of the dark crevices of the world, and with it Sascia’s fascination with the darkness was born. Now eighteen, that fascination has become an obsession, and while exploring an area known for its connection to the Darkworld, Sascia sees a person climb out of the darkness. But Nugau is no ordinary person, they’re a genderfluid elf prince with one mission . . . to kill Sascia. Except, the second time they meet, Nugau is younger and doesn’t recognise Sascia. And the third time, Nugau stumbles out of the darkness with poison running through their veins, expressing their undying love for her. Piecing together the puzzle, Sascia makes two shocking the timelines of her world and Nugau’s are not linear, and she is inexplicably enmeshed in a war between humanity and elves. But with their worlds at battle, is it worth fighting for each other . . . ? Praise for Threads that Bind : 'A fantastical – and utterly original – world. A must-read for all fantasy fans.’ Sarah Underwood, author of Lies We Sing to the Sea 'A gorgeous dark tapestry of mystery, fated romance and modern myth.’ Alexandra Bracken, author of Lore 'Kika Hatzopoulou delivers a high-stakes, page-turning mystery with an utterly gasp-worthy twist.’ Leslie Vedder, author of the Bone Spindle trilogy
