Voidwalker

By S.A. MacLean

Book Overview

From the author of The Phoenix Keeper comes an era-defining new fantasy universe where spicy romantasy meets the Cosmere, unmissable for fans of the world-building scale of Sarah J. Maas and the world-shifting stakes of Rebecca Yarros. Voidwalker will be your next romantasy obsession, a deliciously feral story that starts with just two words: "bite me."

Fionamara is a smuggler. Antal is the reason her people fear the dark. Fi ferries contraband between worlds, stockpiling funds and stolen magic to keep her village self-sufficient - free from the blood sacrifices humans have paid to Antal's immortal species for centuries.

Only legends whispered through the pine forests recall a time when things were different, before one world shattered into many, and the flesh-devouring beasts crept from the cracks between realities, with their sable antlers and slender tails, lethal claws and gleaming fangs. Now, mortal lives are food to pacify their carnivorous overlords, exchanged for feudal protection, and the precious silver energy that fuels everything from transport to weaponry.

When Fi gets planted with a stash of smuggled energy, a long-lost flame recruits her for a reckless heist that escalates into a terrorist bombing - and a coup against the reigning immortals, with Fi's home caught in the crossfire.

She's always known the dangers of her trade - and of the power she's wielded since childhood, allowing her to see the secret doors between dimensions, to walk the Void itself. But nothing could have prepared her for crossing paths with Antal. For the deal she'll have to make with him, a forced partnership to reclaim his city that begins as a desperate bid for survival, only to grow into something far more dangerous.

A revolution. And a temptation - for how sweet the monster's fangs might feel.

Customer Reviews

LOVED this book! Would recommend!

I LOVED this book!! ♥️ The imagery and descriptive language that S.A. MacLean evokes throughout this book truly brings the many dimensions of the world she created and the beings that inhabit it to life. “Fi groaned like a depressed walrus.” (p.385) “In a snarl of bedsheets and bad decisions, Fi scrunched her eyes shut and massaged her temples.” (p.385) I enjoyed that there was a separate dimension for each season. You know the author’s world-building is amazing when you start asking yourself questions about what you would do if you were there. In this case, the questions were ‘Would I want to live in one season forever?’ and ‘If I had to, which one would I choose?’. Then there was the romance. 🔥 Antal is one of my new favorite book boyfriends. Who cares that he eats people? He fights for the ones under his protection and is honestly just a complete softy. He’s absolutely adorable. Also, the tension between Fi and Antal was everything that an enemies-to-lovers romance should be. It was hot, spine-tingling and every interaction left me wanting more. I could not put this book down. I read it in one sitting, stayed up way too late and struggled through the next day exhausted. It was completely worth it. I cannot wait to see where this series goes next. 5/5 ⭐ Highly recommend for the romantasy readers out there, especially if they love an MMC with a tail.
