A TREATY SEALED IN MAGIC. A FATE BORN OF MONSTERS. A LOVE FORETOLD BY LEGEND.

Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn, high-stakes romantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros, where enemies become lovers, monsters stalk a cursed realm, and a forgotten princess finds the strength to tear off her crown and become the warrior she was never meant to be.

The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel. I've spent my life kneeling to their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king. I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood. But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father's throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life. Now I'm crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him bound to a future I didn't choose and a husband I barely know. Everyone wants me to be something I'm not a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.

But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there's power in being underestimated?

And what if for the first time I reached for it?

Rites of the Starling är en storslagen romantasy av Devney Perry och den andra delen i Shield of Sparrows. Serien kombinerar passionerad romantik med farliga uppdrag och passar läsare som älskar romantasy fylld av känslor, magi och ödesmättade val. Perfekt för fans av Sarah J. Maas och Rebecca Yarros – och för de som gillar troper som hidden power och destiny/chosen one.

Kalandras fem kungadömen står på ruinens brant. Kruxmigrationen är på väg. Och i kölvattnet efter en förkrossande attack har jag tvingats från mannen som har mitt hjärta.

Jag är vilse. Skräckslagen. Full av hemlängtan. Jagad av monster, utmattad och kidnappad av en mäktig präst. Det enda som får mig att fortsätta är den lilla flickan som litar på att jag kan hålla henne säker. Det är min tur att bli Väktaren.

Våra liv förändrades en avgörande natt. En natt av död. En natt av monster. En natt av avslöjanden. Jag tvingades lära mig den sanna innebörden av rädsla – och vidden av min egen styrka.

Alla vill göra mig till något jag inte är – en drottning, en spion, ett offer. Men tänk om jag väljer att omfamna min kungliga rätt? Om hemligheterna jag avslöjar räddar vårt rike och mitt offer skonar mannen jag älskar?

Under för lång tid har jag fruktat de monster vi skapar. Det är dags att upptäcka monstret inom mig.

Det enda sättet att besegra monstren man fruktar är att själv bli ett.

För länge sedan släppte gudarna lös monster över de fem kungadömena för att hålla människorna fogliga. Men jag har aldrig behövt någon påminnelse om min plats.

Som prinsessa har min plikt varit att bära kronan och följa min fars vilja. Jag var aldrig menad att härska. Aldrig menad att strida.

Men allt förändrades den dag jag steg in i min fars tronhall. Den dag jag tvingades gifta mig med en prins och underteckna ett magiskt fördrag med blod. Nu färdas jag tvärs över kontinenten mot det farligaste riket i världen tillsammans med en monsterjägare som föraktar mig lika mycket som jag föraktar honom, och en make jag knappt känner. 

Alla vill göra mig till något jag inte är - en drottning, en spion, ett offer. Men tänk om jag vägrar den roll som valts åt mig? Om jag börjar strida för mig själv? 

Shield of Sparrows är Devney Perrys storslagna romantasy som toppat New York Times bästsäljarlista och passar fans av Sarah J. Maas och Rebecca Yarros. Boken ska dessutom bli film av manusförfattaren bakom John Wick-filmerna.

"Den bästa romantasy jag läst på länge. Den här berättelsen liknar inget annat." - Giana Darling, USA Today- och Wall Street Journal-bästsäljande författare
