House of Sky and Breath

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

From the internationally acclaimed, multi-million-selling author Sarah J. Maas, known for her gripping series Throne of Glass and Court of Thorns and Roses, comes the electrifying sequel to the #1 bestseller House of Earth and Blood. In House of Sky and Breath, Maas continues to weave a captivating tale of adventure, passion, and power in the heart of Crescent City.

Bryce Quinlan and Hunt Athalar, still reeling from the harrowing events of the Spring, have sworn to keep their blossoming relationship strictly platonic until the Winter Solstice. But Bryce and Hunt share a chemistry that threatens to ignite the whole of Crescent City. Yet, the dangers they face are far from over. They find themselves reluctantly drawn into a rebel movement, pitting them against the formidable Asteri—a force they must evade at all costs.

As Bryce, Hunt, and their friends delve deeper into the rebellion, they uncover unsettling truths and face impossible choices. They must decide whether to remain silent while others suffer oppression or to stand and fight—a risky move, considering their precarious position. Silence has never been their forte, and the integrity of Crescent City’s fragile peace hangs in the balance.

In this action-packed sequel, Maas's storytelling prowess shines once again, delivering a thrilling narrative filled with tension, romance, and a richly imagined world on the brink of chaos. House of Sky and Breath is a masterful blend of dark fantasy and exhilarating suspense, promising to keep readers enchanted and on the edge of their seats.
