A stunning reimagining of Tristan and Isolde set in a dystopian world woven with magic. An addictive debut YA enemies-to-lovers romantasy - perfect for fans of Rebecca Ross and Sarah Underwood as well as books like Curious Tides, The Hurricane Wars, and Belladonna. It's been thirty-seven years since the Republic was destroyed. Now two settlements-the five clans and the Kingsland-fight for control of the untainted land. Though the five clans are outnumbered, they've finally struck, killing Kingsland's brutal leader. In the war that follows, Isadora, an eighteen-year-old healer, risks her life to help injured soldiers. But when she stops an attack from Tristan, a Kingsland assassin, his soldiers shoot her with a poisoned arrow. As Isadora lies dying, Tristan does the unimaginable: He offers to save her life using a rare magic. In choosing to live, Isadora is unknowingly bound to the mysterious Tristan. Worse, even acknowledging the attraction between them allows him to glean fragments of her memories and the very knowledge he needs to destroy the five clans. But their magical connection works both ways. So to save her people, Isadora will have to open her heart to her most cunning enemy. Because in a race for ultimate survival, she'll need to destroy Tristan and his people first. Classic Retelling: A retelling of Tristan and Isolde, a medieval legend about a forbidden love. Dystopian World: The world has been completely ravaged, leaving few surviving communities to fight over resources. Enemies to Lovers: Isadora has been raised to believe Kingsland is evil. Tristan is a Kingsland assassin. Their chemistry erupts off the page. Married to the Enemy: To save Isadora's life, Tristan marries her which activates his unique magic and binds their fates together. Magical Bond: Isadora, who is set on destroying Tristan and his people, can access his thoughts and memories. And Tristan can access Isadora's.

Från #1 bästsäljande författaren Morgan Rice kommer starten på en hisnande ny fantasyserie, perfekt för fans av Sarah J Maas, Brandon Sanderson och Jennifer L Armentrout. Från USA Today och #1 bästsäljande författaren Morgan Rice, som skrev A Quest of Heroes (med över 5 000 femstjärniga betyg), kommer den efterlängtade debuten av en ny episk fantasyserie. DE DÖDAS SVÄRD-serien omtolkar djärvt Persefone-myten som utgångspunkt för att kasta oss in i en häpnadsväckande ny episk fantasyvärld, fylld av nya skurkar, kungariken, tragiska monster och hjältar. När Meredith, kungens 18-åriga dotter, blir kidnappad av ett monster och förd flera kilometer ner i underjorden, svär Lance, en bondpojke som drömmer om att bli en av kungens elitriddare, att riskera sitt liv för att rädda henne. Lance ger sig ut på ett episkt uppdrag för att bevisa sitt värde inför kungens män, hitta den hemliga vägen till underjorden, övervinna svåra prövningar, slåss mot fruktansvärda monster och föra henne tillbaka. Under tiden, ovan jord, med kungen distraherad och förrådd, faller ett en gång ointagligt kungarike samman när fiender från alla håll närmar sig. Endast en härdad tjuvflicka, en osannolik hjälte, har en chans att rädda allt. DE DÖDAS SVÄRD väver en episk berättelse om öde, magi och kärlek, om uppoffring och makt. En bladvändare full av cliffhangers och oväntade vändningar som kommer att försätta dig i en annan värld. DE DÖDAS SVÄRD tilltalar både unga vuxna och vuxna i alla åldrar och erbjuder ett nytt perspektiv på äventyrsfantasy med svärd och trolldom som kommer att hålla dig vaken sent in på natten. Fler böcker i serien finns också tillgängliga. "Här finns början till något anmärkningsvärt." --San Francisco Book Review (om A Quest of Heroes) "Här finns alla ingredienser för en omedelbar succé: intriger, konspirationer, mystik, tappra riddare och spirande relationer fyllda av brustna hjärtan, svek och förräderi. Den kommer att underhålla dig i timmar och passar alla åldrar. Rekommenderas varmt till alla fantasyläsares bokhyllor." --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (om The Sorcerer's Ring) "En livfull fantasy .... Bara början på vad som lovar att bli en episk serie för unga vuxna." --Midwest Book Review (om A Quest of Heroes) "Actionfylld .... Rice skriver övertygande och premissen är spännande." --Publishers Weekly (om A Quest of Heroes)

Early 1800s – Venice, Italy. Where ancient stones whisper secrets and the shadows conceal immortal desires. For the enigmatic vampire Nico, acquiring a strategic foothold in the city means a swift, convenient marriage – a means to an end in his brethren's quest for a secure Venetian compound. His plan is simple: a wedding night formality, followed by his new bride's swift departure, leaving him free to indulge in his libertine existence. But fate, with a wicked twist, delivers Oriana. Her beauty is a shock, her spirit untamed. The moment Nico lays eyes on her, his carefully laid plans shatter like Venetian glass. Yet, Oriana harbors ambitions far beyond the confines of wifely obedience. Her passion lies in the pursuit of scientific discovery, a world of intellect and innovation that clashes with the expectations of her new, powerful husband. As their reluctant union unfolds, Nico uncovers a truth far more perilous than Oriana's independent nature. His headstrong bride guards secrets that could unravel not only his immortal existence but the entire vampire society of Venice. Torn between duty and a burgeoning desire, Nico faces a deadly choice: eliminate the threat his wife unknowingly poses, or succumb to the intoxicating challenge of seduction. Luckily for Nico, the art of persuasion, the dance of desire, is his most exquisite skill. He will unravel Oriana's secrets, one stolen kiss, one lingering touch at a time. He will entice her to his side, blurring the lines between captive and captor, between animosity and an all-consuming passion that could either save them both… or lead to their ultimate destruction. Prepare to be swept away by a tide of forbidden attraction and hidden agendas, where the clash of intellect and immortal desire ignites a fire that could consume Venice itself.
