"Lynette Noni is a masterful storyteller. A must-read for any fantasy lover!" -- SARAH J. MAAS, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author
Seventeen-year-old Kiva Meridan has spent the last ten years fighting for survival in the notorious death prison, Zalindov, working as the prison healer.
When the Rebel Queen is captured, Kiva is charged with keeping the terminally ill woman alive long enough for her to undergo the Trial by Ordeal: a series of elemental challenges against the torments of air, fire, water, and earth, assigned to only the most dangerous of criminals.
Then a coded message from Kiva's family arrives, containing a single order: "Don't let her die. We are coming." Aware that the Trials will kill the sickly queen, Kiva risks her own life to volunteer in her place. If she succeeds, both she and the queen will be granted their freedom.
But no one has ever survived.
With an incurable plague sweeping Zalindov, a mysterious new inmate fighting for Kiva's heart, and a prison rebellion brewing, Kiva can't escape the terrible feeling that her trials have only just begun.
From bestselling author Lynette Noni comes a dark, thrilling YA fantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, and Sabaa Tahir.
Great character depth, an ending leaves the reader wanting more. Can't wait to read the next one!
Wow! This book was really good! I loved the writing style, characters, and plot twists. I thought I knew where the story was going to go and I usually was wrong. 😅 The book was engaging and easy to read. The characters are so good too! Kiva is pretty smart, which I appreciate, Naari is strong and loyal, Tipp is so adorable, and Jaren is so sweet. 😍 I absolutely love Jaren and his and Kiva's banter is *chefs kiss* 🤌 I would definitely recommend this book for anyone who likes fantasy. As a warning, however, this book does get a little graphic and has elements of violence, self harm, and torture.
I enjoyed this book so much more than I thought I would . It was really good through out but, the last page - life changing. Can’t wait to read the next book.
