Synopsis
Yeine Darr is an outcast from the barbarian
north. But when her mother dies under mysterious circumstances, she is
summoned to the majestic city of Sky - a palace above the clouds where
gods' and mortals' lives are intertwined. There, to her shock, Yeine is
named one of the potential heirs to the king. But the throne of the
Hundred Thousand Kingdoms is not easily won, and Yeine is thrust into a
vicious power struggle with a pair of cousins she never knew she had. As
she fights for her life, she draws ever closer to the secrets of her
mother's death and her family's bloody history. But it's not just
mortals who have secrets worth hiding and Yeine will learn how perilous
the world can be when love and hate - and gods and mortals - are bound
inseparably.
