Praise for the New York Times bestselling Ash Princess series:
“Sure to be one of the summer's most talked about YAs. . . . A
darkly enchanting page-turner you won't be able to put down.”
–Bustle
“Tense and imaginative, this story of a diminished yet vengeful
princess inciting a rebellion to recapture her rightful place of
power strikes a timely chord. Ash Princess is a smart,
feminist twist on a traditional tale of a fallen heroine, with
plenty of court intrigue, love, and lies to sweeten the deal. Good
luck putting this one down.” —Virginia Boecker, author of The Witch
Hunter series
“The story leaps and twists like a swordswoman, and its blade
carves the characters anew and divides them against themselves.
This searing page-turner is a compelling examination of the
complexities of both evil and resistance.”—Sarah Porter, author of
Vassa in the Night
"Laura Sebastian has created a dark and spellbinding epic in Ash
Princess. Brace yourself, because Theodosia Houzzara—wounded,
driven, and deadly—is going to carve out a place for herself in
your heart." —Sara Holland, New York Times bestselling author of
Everless
