A TIMELESS TALE OF COURAGE, HOPE, LOVE, AND BETRAYAL. SET IN A PEACEFUL COUNTRY OF STRONG FIGHTERS, BOLD THIEVES, SINISTER LIARS, AND SLIPPERY NOBLES, NONE OF WHOM REALIZE THE TROUBLE THEIR WORLD IS REALLY IN. Princess Andrea Amonero, a fantastic sword fighter with a penchant for disobeying, and heir to the throne of Roden, finds out her life is a lie. When she finds out she's not the real heir to Roden's throne, the feisty princess goes with the king's soldiers sent to retrieve Gavin, the real heir, and keep him safe from the assassins that seem to plague the royal family. But along the way, she finds more than she bargained for when she has to use her impressive sword skills to protect him and get him back to the palace all on her own. However, the people in the palace are not as she left them, and it will take her, a loyal soldier, who is on the run for a murder she didn't commit, a thief lord, who only wants what's best for the poor people of the city, and a wise blacksmith, who has an unique ability at invention, to get Gavin in his rightful position of heir before events spark a civil war between the nobles. But there are legends, impossible truths, and fateful lies along the way, and they make Andrea realize there is a lot more to the world than she imagined. Fans for those looking for something similar to the next Brandon Sanderson book, or for those who enjoy Leigh Bardugo's enchanting stories.
