Annalise may be cousin to the prince, but her past isn’t what she claims, and she possesses a magic so powerful it takes all her strength to control it. Evra is a country girl, and has watched as each friend and family member came into their own magic, while hers remains dormant. But everything changes after Annalise loses control of herself and Evra begins experiencing the debilitating visions of a once-in-a-generation clairvoyant meant to serve the crown. Thrown together at court, Evra and Annalise find that they have the same goal: to protect their kingdom from the powerful men who are slowly destroying it. But neither is quick to trust the other — Evra’s visions suggest a threat to royal rule, and Annalise worries that her darkest secrets will be revealed. Their magic at odds, the young women circle each other, until the truth must come out.

Expulsadas por Asa, Nomi y Malachi se dirigen hacia una muerte casi segura. Ahora que Asa se sienta en el trono, nada le parará para asegurarse de que Malachi no regrese a palacio. Su única esperanza es encontrar a Serina, la hermana de Nomi, en la isla-prisión de Monte Ruina. Pero cuando llegan allí, no es un panorama de mujeres sometidas lo que ven, sino una isla en plena revuelta, liderada por Serina.

Na continuação de Graça e Fúria, Serina e Nomi Tessaro vão dar início a uma revolução que vai mudar a vida de todas as mulheres de seu país. As irmãs Serina e Nomi Tessaro nunca imaginaram que acabariam em lugares tão distintos: Serina em uma ilha-prisão, Monte Ruína; Nomi no palácio de Bellaqua, como uma graça, à disposição do príncipe herdeiro do reino. Depois de sofrer uma grande traição, Nomi também é mandada para a ilha e, ao chegar lá, para sua surpresa, encontra Serina à frente de uma rebelião das prisioneiras contra os guardas. Agora as irmãs têm um objetivo em comum: mudar o funcionamento de toda a sociedade. Além disso, elas sabem que Renzo, gêmeo de Nomi, está em perigo. Relutantes, elas se separam mais uma vez, e Nomi retorna à capital, enquanto Serina permanece em Monte Ruína para garantir que todas as mulheres encontrem um lugar seguro para viver. Só que nada sai como o planejado ― e as duas vão ter de enfrentar os seus maiores medos para mudar o país de uma vez por todas.

Duas irmãs lutam para mudar o próprio destino no primeiro volume de uma série de fantasia repleta de romance, ação e intrigas políticas. Em Viridia, as mulheres não têm direitos. Em vez de rainhas, os governantes escolhem periodicamente três graças — jovens que viveriam ao seu dispor. Serina Tessaro treinou a vida inteira para se tornar uma graça, mas é Nomi, sua irmã mais nova, quem acaba sendo escolhida pelo herdeiro. Nomi nunca aceitou as regras que lhe eram impostas e aprendeu a ler, apesar de a leitura ser proibida para as mulheres. Seu fascínio por livros a levou a roubar um exemplar da biblioteca real — mas é Serina quem acaba sendo pega com ele nas mãos. Como punição, a garota é enviada a uma ilha que serve de prisão para mulheres rebeldes. Agora, Serina e Nomi estão presas a destinos que nunca desejaram — e farão de tudo para se reencontrar.

In a world where women have no rights, sisters Serina and Nomi Tessaro face two very different fates: one in the palace, the other in prison. Serina has been groomed her whole life to become a Grace - someone to stand by the heir to the throne as a shining, subjugated example of the perfect woman. But when her headstrong and rebellious younger sister, Nomi, catches the heir's eye, it's Serina who takes the fall for the dangerous secret that Nomi has been hiding. Now trapped in a life she never wanted, Nomi has only one way to save Serina: surrender to her role as a Grace until she can use her position to release her sister. This is easier said than done. A traitor walks the halls of the palace, and deception lurks in every corner. But Serina is running out of time, imprisoned on an island where she must fight to the death to survive and one wrong move could cost her everything.

En un mundo de hombres en el que las mujeres no tienen ningún derecho, cada provincia del reino debe presentar a sus jóvenes más hermosas para que el príncipe heredero pueda elegir a su pareja. Así es como dos hermanas, Nomi y Serina, terminan confinadas en dos hábitats contrapuestos: la hermosa, frágil y débil en la inhóspita prisión de Mont Ruin y la chica resuelta, práctica y luchadora entre las sedas y fiestas de palacio. Dos historias de superación, supervivencia y amor entre hermanas... Porque, cuando la solución no llega, solo queda cambiar las reglas: ¡Que empiece la revolución!

Jessa has been raised to be the “perfect girl.” She is unfailingly polite, never rocks the boat, and always follows the rules―no matter what. Her friends love to give her a hard time for being such a goody two-shoes, but Jessa likes it this way. She knows what's expected of her, and she's happy to be the person her parents (and society) want. When a freak storm takes out the power during a sleepover at Jessa’s creepy, old house, things go south before the pizza gets cold. Her friends are at each other’s throats, unexpected guests keep showing up (some more welcome than others), and it’s not just her brother serving up jump scares. A killer looking for the perfect girl has targeted Jessa, and she’ll have to reject everything she’s been taught if she wants to keep herself―and her friends―alive until sunrise. Who knew perfection could be so dangerous?

A fierce sequel full of sisterhood, heart pounding action, betrayal, and intrigue in the royal court in a series that "breathes new life into the feminist story of oppression and resistance" (Publisher's Weekly). Banished by Asa at the end of Grace and Fury, Nomi and Malachi find themselves powerless and headed towards their all-but-certain deaths. Now that Asa sits on the throne, he will stop at nothing to make sure Malachi never sets foot in the palace again. Their only hope is to find Nomi's sister, Serina, on the prison island of Mount Ruin. But when Nomi and Malachi arrive, it is not the island of conquered, broken women that they expected. It is an island in the grip of revolution, and Serina--polite, submissive Serina--is its leader. Betrayal, grief, and violence have changed both sisters, and the women of Mount Ruin have their sights set on revenge beyond the confines of their island prison. They plan to sweep across the entire kingdom, issuing in a new age of freedom for all. But first they'll have to get rid of Asa, and only Nomi knows how. Separated once again, this time by choice, Nomi and Serina must forge their own paths as they aim to tear down the world they know, and build something better in its place. The stakes are higher and the battles bolder in Tracy Banghart's unputdownable sequel to Grace and Fury.

In the action-packed sequel to Rebel Wing, Aris battles for life and love . . . and not everyone will survive. Aris Haan gave up everything to join the Atalantan Military: her family, her boyfriend, even her identity. In the end, though, it didn’t matter that she was a war hero. When the all-male Military discovered that she was actually a woman, she was sent home and erased from history. Now she has a chance to go back to the battlefield—as herself. But as hard as it was to be a soldier in disguise, it’s even more difficult now. The men in her unit undermine her at every turn. The Safaran army has spies everywhere, perhaps even on Aris’s stationpoint. And she’s falling for her mysterious superior officer, Milek. But their relationship is forbidden, just stolen moments between training sessions and missions. There’s no room for love in war. Then Aris discovers that Safara’s leaders have set their sights on her, Atalanta’s hero. And she must find them before they find her . . .

Spannende YA-roman over twee zussen, een kroonprins en een vernietigende keuze. Serina heeft zich jarenlang voorbereid om een Grace te worden, voorbestemd voor een leven aan de zijde van de kroonprins. Totaal onverwacht kiest hij voor Serina's rebelse zusje. Nomi belandt in een leven dat ze nooit heeft gewild: achter de paleismuren. Ze moet zich voegen naar de wensen van de prins in de hoop dat ze haar zus ooit weer terug zal zien. Ze weet niet dat Serina naar de mijnen is gestuurd, waar slechts weinigen overleven…

The end is near . . . When Aris Haan brought down Safara’s biggest war criminal, she’d thought it was a turning point in the war. Victory was on the horizon, as was a peaceful future with her Promised, Milek. But a deadly new threat has emerged: a Safaran bomb that could wipe out all of Atalanta in one catastrophic blast. Aris is tasked with finding the weapon before it is completed, a mission made more difficult when she starts to suspect that there is a Safaran spy in her unit. Friendships are tested, loyalties are strained, and suddenly Aris no longer knows whom she can trust. In the epic conclusion to the Rebel Wing series, Atalanta’s fate rests on Aris’s shoulders. Can she find the bomb before it destroys everything—and everyone—she loves?
