#1 New York Times bestselling author Kendare Blake returns with the
highly anticipated third book in the Three Dark Crowns series! And while
Arsinoe, Mirabella, and Katharine all have their own scores to settle,
there is another queen stirring things up on Fennbirn Island.
Queen Katharine has waited her entire life to wear the crown. But now
that she finally has it, the murmurs of dissent grow louder by the day.
There's also the alarming issue of whether her sisters are actually
dead--or if they're waiting in the wings to usurp the throne.
Mirabella and Arsinoe are alive, but in hiding on the mainland and
dealing with a nightmare of their own: being visited repeatedly by a
specter they think might be the fabled Blue Queen. Though she says
nothing, her rotting, bony finger pointing out to sea is clear enough:
return to Fennbirn.
Jules, too, is in a strange place--in disguise. And her only confidants,
a war-gifted girl named Emilia and her oracle friend Mathilde, are
urging her to take on a role she can't imagine filling: a legion-cursed
queen who will lead a rebel army to Katharine's doorstep.
This is an uprising that the mysterious Blue Queen may have more to do
with than anyone could have guessed--or expected.
Don't miss Five Dark Fates, the thrilling conclusion to the
series!
