"Fia Riftborne thought joining the Sidhe Guard was the hardest choice she'd ever make. She was wrong. Taken prisoner by the very shadows she was sworn to fight, Fia uncovers a devastating truth. The wraiths who brought destruction to the Isle's western border aren't monsters at all, but a race of people from a dying realm called the Kálfar, and they believe Fia's growing powers are tied to their survival. As war looms on two fronts, Fia must navigate a world of shadow magic and political upheaval. A disgraced Kálfar lord builds an army in the south while tensions within Sídhe reach a breaking point. And the Void that gave Fia her power is calling -- but answering it means betraying everyone she left behind. The Guard. Her friends. Laryk. In a war where nothing is as it seems, choosing the wrong side could cost her everything, including the brooding commander whose darkness seems to recognize her own"--Amazon.com.

Twenty years after a rebellion branded her an outcast, Fia Riftborne navigates a city rife with prejudice so deep, it's often deadly. But she harbors a secret, one that would paint an even larger target on her back. A hidden power within her is growing, threatening to destroy everything she's built for herself. Enter the elusive Sidhe General, Laryk Ashford, who is building a unit of powerful wielders within the Guard to face a growing threat. Wraiths of darkness devour the Western border, leaving a trail of death and destruction in their wake. When Fia's power erupts, and two daughters of Nobility are seemingly dead, General Ashford offers her a chilling choice: join the Sidhe Guard or face execution. Because Fia might be the only hope for the Isle's survival.

In a world where divine power seeps into the mortal realm, Thais Morvaren, a fisherman's daughter, secretly wields the ability to forge weapons from starlight. This hidden talent would compel her to enter the perilous Trials of Ascension. However, when a priest's ritual reveals her divine lineage, she is forcibly conscripted into the trials. Trapped in a competition she never desired, Thais channels her fear into a singular purpose: to kill Olinthar, the King of the Gods, whose divine touch led to her mother's death. To achieve this, she must ascend to godhood, even at great personal cost. Complicating matters, she is bound to a mentor, Xül, a necromancer prince with a dark past and a sharp wit. Their initial encounters are fraught with tension, as both are headstrong and unwilling to yield to one another or the undeniable chemistry between them. As she navigates the trials, each challenge brings her closer to her goal, but an ancient malevolence lurks in the shadows of the divine realm, threatening to disrupt everything. Forced into the Trials for survival, Thais ultimately seeks vengeance, and the price of achieving godhood continues to rise. Some stars are not meant to be weapons; some are destined to fall.
