Rain of Shadows and Endings: Deluxe Special Edition is a masterpiece in fated mates and broken bonds world-building, crafted for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Amber V. Nicole, Kaylie Smith, and Rebecca Yarros. The first instalment in Melissa K. Roehrich’s internationally bestselling Legacy Series, this contemporary dark romantasy unfolds in a world forgotten by the gods, created for their descendants, roamed by dragons, served by Fae… and not so different from our own.

DELUXE SPECIAL EDITION with stencilled edges, a beautiful foil-stamped hardcover, exclusive design with illustrated endpapers and full-colour character art!

“No one writes emotional, immersive, beautiful chaos like Melissa Roehrich. If you love worlds you can practically touch and taste, angst that will have your heart pounding, and romance that will leave you breathless, Rain of Shadows and Endings will consume you from the beginning!” — LJ Andrews, bestselling author of The Ever Seas and Broken Souls and Bones

Out of all their creations, the gods favoured their children the most. But with that favour came the fear that their Legacy would one day become too powerful . . .

A World the Gods Forgot

Devram is a realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left—having sworn to never return and to never interfere.

A Historical Event

Forced into a life of servitude, the Fae provide for the Legacy in more ways than one. Every five years, eligible Fae are gathered for the Selection and assigned to serve in one of the six Kingdoms. To be chosen as the personal Source for a Kingdom Heir is the greatest honour, and for the first time in millennia, all six Kingdoms have heirs choosing a Source. But their selections could tip the power balance a little too far.

A Chosen That Was Never Meant to Be

Tessalyn Asura was as forgotten as the realm. But when she finds herself the personal Source to the Heir of Endings, she winds up serving in the darkest Kingdom of them all. The secrets within the Arius Kingdom are meant to be learned and kept, but this was never the life she wanted. Fighting not only the fate thrust upon her, but the temptation to lose herself to desire, Tessa will do anything to escape her new destiny. Until she begins to realise that maybe their world isn’t as forgotten as they thought—and that maybe she’s the reason why.
