“Bravura worldbuilding. Dazzling epic fantasy.”—Publisher’s Weekly’s BookLife, Editor’s Pick
When a stranger enters Quen’s dusty village atop a giant black wolf, Quen’s world is turned upside down. Quen has stifled the changeling within her entire life, but on the cusp of her twentieth year, it has become nearly impossible to hide.
The sorceress delivers a disturbing prophecy and reveals that Quen’s mother signed a dark pact. Her mother promised Quen’s soul to a dragon cult, and the mysterious stranger has come to collect what is owed.
Seeking answers, Quen pursues the sorceress into the swirling desert sands. But a trickster god deals a nasty hand, and Quen’s life begins to unravel as the prophecy foretold.
As Quen seeks answers—and the scaly hide of the dragon who razed her village—she finds kinship and a chance for love. But she’ll lose it all if anyone discovers the truth. For within Quen beats a second heart, and only one of her souls will survive this Season of the Dragon.
Will Quen unite her warring souls? Or will her shadow soul consume her—and everyone she loves?
