Synopsis
The Serpent Prince is a blade sharpened with intrigue and hardened in the fires of betrayal. Who will rise in the aftermath of chaos? And who will be swallowed by the serpent's coil? Imani flees her home as a wanted murderer. Betrayed, she seeks to regain her footing in Niflheim and vows retribution against those who wronged her. She will let nothing block her path to vengeance: there will be a reckoning, and she will spare no one who stands in her way. Yet despite being used by everyone she knows, Imani turns to the only people she can, burrowing herself deeper into the lives of her former allies to uncover their secrets—and her own. But the longer Imani immerses herself in the politics of the Niflheim Kingdom, the less sure she becomes of anything—allies, enemies, wrong, right, evil, good, hate... and love. Another more insidious threat, orchestrated by people beyond her imagination, lurks beneath the surface. With civil turmoil swelling in her own kingdom, the clock is ticking on Imani's plans. Faced with the choice of which side to stand with, she'll stop at nothing to come out on top—and the Serpent Prince himself could not foresee the cost of victory. The addictive sequel to The Elf Witch, The Serpent Prince is a dark, slow-burning romantasy about villains. It's filled with political intrigue, betrayals, and a beautiful, unique magic system; perfect for fans who love Game of Thrones, Amelia Hutchins, Ella Fields, and Melissa Roehrich’s The Legacy Series. Readers Beware: This book is for adult readers and contains mature and explicit content (see the author’s website for a complete list of trigger warnings).
