The brand new epic fantasy from Sunday Times and internationally bestselling author Jay Kristoff. A broken angel must lead a band of villains, thieves, and half-demons on a quest to save an Empire.
The gates to the hells have been sealed.
Liandra d’Helene is a captain of the Empress’s Hand; a cadre of halfblooded angels safeguarding the Imperium from infernal magics and monsters.
The doors to the heavens shut.
But a mission gone wrong sees her comrades slaughtered, her command stripped, and reputation shattered.
Humanity has been liberated from the schemes of the gods above and below.
Now she has but one path back to grace – leadership of a motley crew of villains, killers and half-demons, tasked with a quest too perilous for soldiers of the Imperium to risk their lives on.
The Age of Enlightenment has begun.
Yet evil does not die, it waits, and the Everwar can never truly end. Enlightenment teeters on the edge of a knife. But can the fate of the world be entrusted to a pack of complete bastards?
