Madeline James: Because the Beasts Came, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Perfect for fans of The Bridge Kingdom , A Curse So Dark and Lonely , The Serpent & The Wings of Night and The Hurricane Wars , Because the Beasts Came is a romantic fantasy full of aching tension, a brutal world of monsters and fragile hope, and a heroine torn between duty, desire, and survival.

She's already broken but this mission may be the thing that shatters her.

The Beasts tore the kingdom apart. The gangs claimed what was left. Now the survivors cling to scattered settlements, struggling to hold their borders. Iryana, a young Guardian, does everything she can from the shadows to keep her clan's outpost standing. But they're losing.

Their only hope lies beyond the border: the magic of the metal-wells, and the ruthless military gangs that control them. To save her family, Iryana must infiltrate a nearby brigade, earn their trust, and forge her magic in one of their wells.

But surviving among liars and killers is harder than she expected. Their calculating leader sees her value when no one else can. A bitter soldier wants her gone but keeps saving her life. And the closer she gets to the brigade, the harder it is to keep her cracks from showing.

She came to save her family.

She didn't expect someone to try saving her.

Because the Beasts Came is the first book in a heart-clenching romantic fantasy duology within the Wells of Istri world.
