The Kindred have been unleashed.

Now earth and fire are on a path of destruction. The air god is trapped inside Taran, and the water goddess has found its host in Cleo. Their strength is waning, and they must find a way to control the magic before it controls them.

Jonas and Lucia join Cleo, Taran, and King Gaius at the Paelsian palace with new baby Lyssa in tow. But Magnus is nowhere to be found. Lucia musters all the magic she has left to perform a location spell. Her vision is clear: Magnus died at the hands of Lord Kurtis. Defeated and devastated, the group heads to Auranos, seeking revenge.

Unbeknownst to them, Magnus struggles to free himself from Kurtis’s deadly trap. But is he strong enough to escape? While the others formulate a plan to defeat the Kindred, an intruder breaks into the compound and steals something precious that will change everything.

Meanwhile, across the sea in Kraeshia, Amara questions which kind of leader she is destined to be—the ruthless, sinister dictator her grandmother wishes her to be or the just and fair ruler she knows is within her. She must discover her identity soon. Grandma Cortas’s plan is even more sinister than she imagined.

The final fight to save Mytica isn’t a fight at all—it’s war.

In the fifth installment of the Fallen Kingdom series, an epic clash between gods and mortals threatens to tear Mytica apart . . . and proves that not even the purest love stands a chance against the strongest magic.

The ruthless Empress Amara of Kraeshia has taken the Mytican throne, and now uncertainty looms over the three kingdoms. Since Lucia unleashed the fire Kindred, wreaking havoc throughout the land, Myticans have been looking for someone—anyone—they can trust. They believe in Amara, not knowing her grand promises are built on lies.

In Paelsia, Magnus and Cleo reluctantly follow King Gaius to the home of his exiled mother, Selia. Selia is a powerful witch and claims she can help unlock the magic of the Kindred—if the visitors agree to her terms. When Jonas arrives from Kraeshia, he is shocked to find that his rebel army now includes his sworn enemies. Along with Nic, Felix, and the mysteriously resurrected Ashur, the contentious group agrees to cast aside old grudges—for now—and unite against their common enemy: Amara.

Meanwhile, bearing the child of a Watcher and feared by all, Princess Lucia travels across Mytica to find her family. But time is running out. The impending storm signals the dark prophecy Timotheus warned her about. Her fate is written, and it includes none other than the rebel Jonas. When their paths collide, Jonas and Lucia must decide between blindly following their destiny or fighting for their own free will.

The battle for power culminates at the Paelsian palace, where Amara resides. Rain pours. Blood spills. And soon all will discover that the darkest magic comes at an even darker price.

In the fourth installment of the bestselling Falling Kingdom fantasy series, the plans are laid and the players are determined . . . but nothing can prepare these unlikely warriors for what the elemental gods of Mytica have in store.

“[A young adult] Game of Thrones full of intrigue, betrayal, lies, and love.”—The Guardian

Mytica’s future hangs in the balance as royals, rebels, and monsters across two kingdoms engage in a deadly race for magic and power.

Betrayed by Melenia and unloved by his people, King Gaius flees Mytica for Kraeshia, where he hopes to make an alliance with the famously cruel and powerful emperor across the Silver Sea. An unlikely alliance with Amara, the sly and seductive princess of Kraeshia, brings the King of Blood closer than ever to his goal of all-consuming power. But little does he know that Amara harbors a magical secret and a ruthless plan of her own.

In the traumatic wake of Alexius’s grisly death, Princess Lucia discovers a brand-new power that makes her stronger—and more deadly—than ever. The sorceress now roams the kingdoms with the newly awoken fire god, the two of them seeking vengeance of very different kinds.

Prince Magnus takes his father’s place on the Limerian throne, forcing Princess Cleo to question the strength of the bond it took them so long to form. Suspicion and distrust brew anew between this star-crossed pair when rebel leader Jonas arrives from the south bringing dangerous news and a mysterious new friend.

Enemies loom and heroes fail at every turn. But when Mytican shores are breached by the most shocking invaders of all, only one warrior can emerge victorious.

The seeds of revolution have been sown . . . but in Mytica the lust for power reigns supreme.

“Perfect for fans of Game of Thrones.”—Tor

The Rebels forge ahead. Armed with a secret weapon, Princess Cleo rises from the ashes of her family’s defeat and her cruel imprisonment to team up with vengeful Jonas in a hunt for the Kindred, the four hidden crystals that can change their fates.

The Kraeshians join the fray. Royal siblings Ashur and Amara voyage across the vast Silver Sea with their calculating gaze on the Mytican throne, but instead find they desire a prize with far more value.

The Watchers prepare to pounce. They conspire with Melenia in an alliance with King Gaius, who vows to use Princess Lucia’s burgeoning powers to locate and unleash the Kindred.

Prince Magnus must choose a side . . . but what good is a choice when everyone he looks to has already betrayed him?

War brought them together. Love will tear them apart.

Auranos has been conquered and the three kingdoms—Auranos, Limeros, and Paelsia—are now unwillingly united as one country called Mytica. But alluring, dangerous magic still beckons, and with it the chance to rule not just Mytica, but the world. . . .


   •  CLEO is now a prisoner in her own palace, forced to be an ambassador for Mytica as the evil King Gaius lies to her people
   •  MAGNUS stands to eventually inherit the new kingdom but is still obsessed with his feelings for his adopted sister, Lucia
   •  LUCIA is haunted by the deadly outcome of her breathtaking display of magic that allowed her father to capture the kingdoms
   •  JONAS watches at the palace gates, a troop of rebels behind him, waiting for him to tell them how he plans to overtake King Gaius
When Gaius announces that a road is to be built into the Forbidden Mountains, formally linking all of Mytica together, he sets off a chain of cataclysmic events that will forever change the face of this land.
