Description

But before training can begin, the king of Royal Hanguk cancels the exam, and instead commands Aria and the other novices to reclaim the Touch of Death - a powerful ancient relic that was stolen from the kingdom. And by Aria's mother, no less.

If that wasn't bad enough, Aria experiences a devastating loss and considers going to horrific lengths to cope... even potentially joining the freedom slingers - a rogue and dangerous faction of dreamslingers. How will Aria choose to deal with her grief? And will her decisions result in the end of the League?

About the Author

Graci Kim is the New York Times best-selling author of The Last Fallen Star, The Last Fallen Moon, and The Last Fallen Realm, otherwise known as the Gifted Clans trilogy. A Korean Kiwi diplomat turned author, Graci writes about the magic she wants to see in the world. In a previous life she used to be a cooking-show host, and she once ran a business that turned children's drawings into cuddly toys. When she's not lost in her imagination, you'll find Graci drinking flat whites, eating ramyeon, and most likely hugging a dog (or ideally, many). She lives in New Zealand with her husband and daughter. Follow her on Instagram
