But when she discovers that Avalkyra has bonded with a strix-a legendary creature of darkness that feeds off the life force of others-Veronyka realizes she has more to deal with than an encroaching war with the empire.
Veronyka is determined to do whatever it takes to get Tristan back, even if that means revealing her identity to the world and inheriting a throne she’s not sure she wants. Was it always going to come down to this? Sister against sister? Darkness against light? Except for her beloved phoenix, Xephyra, of course, and her new friend, Kade, who has his own reasons for wanting to save Tristan. Now that the secret is out, everyone at the Eyrie treats Veronyka differently, and with Tristan still a hostage of the scheming Lord Rolan-and Sev with him as a spy-Veronyka feels very much alone. Veronyka is no longer an orphaned stable boy or a nameless Phoenix Rider she is the daughter of Pheronia Ashfire, the last queen of the Golden Empire… and the niece of Avalkyra Ashfire, the resurrected rebel queen who tore the empire apart.
In the heart-stopping finale to the Crown of Feathers trilogy, which #1 New York Times bestselling author Kendare Blake calls “absolutely unforgettable,” Veronyka must face her most devastating enemy her own sister.
