Deep within the Illyrian Mountains, Gwendylyn slaves away in the Illyrian war camps. Her wings were clipped as a youth and now she believes she must face a life without them, until one day when an Illyrian general comes to the camp seeking females who want to prove that they have what it takes to earn a place on the battlefield. Now, Gwen will learn to fight, fly, and lead the first female Illyrian aerial fighting unit in Prythian's history. But war is on the rise. Illyrian males will do anything to keep females off the battlefield, even if that means slaughtering them all. Only the Blood Rite will earn the unit a chance to become true warriors. This book is based on Sarah J Maas' A Court of Thorns and Roses series and I do not own any of Sarah J Maas' characters or fictional world. I tried to make the novel as accurate to SJM's series as possible! I am trying to update as often as I can. I hope you are all staying safe and healthy in these crazy times! (April 22 2020)
