Book 6
In the epic conclusion to the Falling Kingdoms fantasy series, sworn enemies must become allies as they fight to save Mytica.

“This is one of those series you can’t help but be obsessed with.”—Richelle Mead, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Vampire Academy and The Glittering Court

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.
Book 5
An epic clash between gods and mortals threatens to tear Mytica apart . . . and prove that not even the purest of love stands a chance against the strongest of magic.

MAGNUS and CLEO are forced to test the strength of their love when Gaius returns to Mytica claiming he’s no longer the King of Blood but a changed man seeking redemption.

LUCIA, pregnant with the child of a Watcher, has escaped the clutches of the unhinged fire god. Her powers are dwindling as she goes forth to fulfill a prophecy that will keep her baby safe . . . but could mean her demise.  

JONAS treks back to Mytica with a plan to overtake Amara, but fate takes hold when he runs into the beautiful Princess Lucia and joins her on her perilous journey.

AMARA has taken the Mytican throne, but with no way to unleash the water magic trapped within her stolen crystal, she’ll never be able to seize glory and get sweet revenge.

And what kind of darkness will descend–and who will be safe–after Prince Ashur reveals the dangerous price he paid to cheat death?
Book 4
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.
Book 3
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?
Book 2
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.
