Crowned A Traitor: An Epic Dark Fantasy Series

By Kate Callaghan

DESTINY DOESN'T CHASE. IT HUNTS.

Heir to Hell and the dark forest of Malum, Klara is summoned to claim a throne she never wanted... and marked for death when she refuses. She is hunted by her own guardians - the Three Queens of Malum - and her childhood sweetheart, now a Commander in Lucifer's army. With her home now a prison, she flees to Kalos, a Fae haven untouched by dark magic. But nothing is ever what it seems here...

To survive the perilous journey, she'll have to trust the most unlikely of allies:

a smuggling leprechaun,

a charming demon,

a dead warlock,

and lycaon siblings who lie as easily as they breathe.

In the Realm, trust is not earned. It's traded. And every bargain leaves a mark.
