Overview
āBates brilliantly concludes an impressive high fantasy trilogy with this tale of scheming and magic.āāPublishers Weekly (starred review)
Sophy Dunbarronāthe illegitimate daughter of a king who never wasāhas always felt like an impostor. Separated from her birth mother, raised by parents mourning the loss of their true daughter, and unacknowledged by her father, Sophy desires only a place and a family to call her own. But fate has other ideas. Caught up in Elanna Valtaiās revolution, Sophy has become the reigning monarch of a once-divided countryāa role she has been groomed her whole life to fill.
But as she quickly discovers, wearing a crown is quite a different thing from keeping a crown. With an influx of magic-bearing refugees pouring across the border, resources already thinned by war are stretched to the breaking point. Half the nobility in her court want her deposed, and the other half question her every decision. And every third person seems to be spontaneously manifesting magical powers.
When Elanna is captured and taken to Paladis, Sophyās last ally seems to have vanished. Now it is up to her alone to navigate a political maze that becomes more complex and thorny by the day. And worse, Sophy is hiding a huge secretāone that could destroy her tenuous hold on the crown forever.

āSophy is truly a feminist hero: she embraces equality and justice for allāa theme running throughout the novelāwhile challenging societal norms.āāBooklist
