ACOTAR- Azriel/OC
Volume I in the A Court of Secrets Series
-
Five hundred years ago, the Princess of the Night Court was slaughtered in the Illyrian wilderness. Her wings were torn from her back. Her head was put in a box and thrown down the river for her brother to find. Her story ended the way it was told- through blood and suffering and death.
At least, that's what everyone thought.
But there are secrets she took to the grave-
And one of them is that she's still alive.
Now, as war with Hybern looms and the cracks in the Night Court begin to splinter, her return sets off a chain reaction that no one is ready for.
Allegiances shift. Truths are questioned.
And the story everyone thought they knew begins to unravel-
One bloody, burning lie at a time.
