About this ebook

Grace Richardson is a young mortal woman whose only concerns are providing for her family, playing her violin, and spending as much time as possible with her brother, Leo. When Leo goes into service in the Fae’s world as a mercenary, she expects him to return with the honor that he deserves.

When Leo suddenly dies in an unspecified accident, not a word, medal, or penny comes down from the higher-ups. Suspecting foul play, Grace disguises herself as a Fae and sneaks into the Upper Realm to get some answers. She anticipates being in way over her head, but the Fae soldier who discovers her true identity only a day in? Not so much.

Now Grace is forced to drag Aiden along as she tries to work out exactly how and why her brother died. Along the way, she has no choice but to confront her prejudices against the Fae as she attempts to sort out the difference between the honest and the dishonest. Political conspiracies, demon realm escapades, and family secrets will all lead Grace to the answers she’s looking for… and some that she isn’t.

Ratings and reviews

The story is addictive. The author has a way of painting with words. As with painting, unless you're looking closely, you won't see the misstrokes. I have a very real compulson to autocorrect words, phrases, and sentences that are incorrect, or simply do not make sense as written, in my head. Unfortunately for me, when that happens too frequently in a work, I usually spend too much time correcting mistakes, and I never fully immerse myself in the story. That being said... The fact that there were many corrections needed, and I still blazed through this book, is a testament to how creative and brilliant I find this author to be. With less grammatical and coherency issues, this rating would have easily been 5 stars. I want to keep reading to see what happens next... I, selfishly, hope subsequent books have fewer errors so that I can just dive in without continuously scanning the waters for grammar crocodiles. Either way, I love the premise, characters, and flow of events. <3

This book was great . If you have enjoyed the Throne of Glass series, you should like this one too. I hope to see many more in the future.

it was a good read. a little slow to get started but once it did it was hard to put down. I bought the next book immediately.
