From the No.1 Sunday Times bestseller of The Prince Without Sorrow comes the breathtaking second instalment of the Obsidian Throne trilogy, an epic fantasy of betrayal, memory, and the fight for an empire.

RETURN TO THE RAN EMPIRE.

Where emperors are cursed to die.

Danger lurks in every shadow.

And a prince and a witch must burn it all down…

A TYRANT EMPRESS

The Ran Empire is in chaos. Prince Ashoka’s sister, Aarya, has named herself empress and under her harsh rule, the mayakari witches are in more danger than ever before.

A WITCH LOST IN DREAMS

Shakti has been captured, drugged and forced to cast a curse she cannot remember. When she finally wakes, gaps in her memory trap her more thoroughly than any cage.

A PRINCE TRYING TO CHANGE THE WORLD

Ashoka must find allies quickly if he is to help the mayakari, but the tougher his decisions, the further he gets from his true self. He must decide what he is willing to lose in pursuit of his vision of the future.

In the breathtaking second instalment of the Obsidian Throne trilogy, the first blow has been dealt by Ashoka and Shakti, but the empire remains and appears stronger – and more brutal – than ever.
