CLAIM THE SWORD OR BREAK IT . . .

A former squire fights for hope amid blood and chaos.

A grieving immortal strives to fulfil a broken oath.

An outcast assassin rages against her vicious past.

An old sorceress summons a mighty power.

And a pirate's daughter takes up her father's sword.

Together they must assemble a last-ditch resistance to face a teenage queen and her tyrant consort before they can unleash what waits in the shadows trapped between the worlds they are recklessly breaking open.

From a sprawling cast of knights, witches, monsters, gods, and dragons to an exquisitely slow-burn villain romance, Blade Breaker is an unmissable YA epic fantasy perfect for fans of the huge worlds of Sarah J Maas and the found family quests of V. E. Schwab.
