About this audiobook
Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love and dared to imagine a world free of bloodshed and war. This was not that world.
'Magical, mouthwatering, imaginative' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'Spellbinding and engaging to a degree I've rarely experienced in YA' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'She has a way with words that is just magical' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Art student and monster's apprentice Karou finally has the answers she has always sought. She knows who she is - and what she is.
But with this knowledge comes another truth she would give anything to undo: she loved the enemy and he betrayed her, and a world suffered for it.
While Karou and her allies build a monstrous army in a land of dust and starlight, Akiva wages a different sort of battle: a battle for redemption. For hope. But can any hope be salvaged from the ashes of their broken dream?
Karou and Akiva find themselves on opposing sides as an age-old war stirs back to life, in the stunning sequel to Daughter of Smoke and Bone.
Tropes
Opposites attract romance

Reluctant allies
