Sisters torn apart by war. Shapeshifters fighting to regain their long-lost magic. And an empire in need of a leader. In this dark, sweeping fantasy perfect for fans of Girls of Paper and Fire and Wicked Saints, two princesses must save their home, no matter the cost. Princess Lu knows that the throne of the Empire of the First Flame rightfully belongs to her. After all, she is the late Emperors firstborn and has trained for the role all her life. And she cant forget made a promise to shapeshifter Nok, the boy she came to love, to win justice for his now powerless people. But even with an army at her side, Lu will need to face down a major obstacle: the current sitting Empress, her once beloved younger sister, Min. Princess Min used to live in Lus shadow. But now she can control a powerful, ancient magic, and shes determined to use it to forge her own path and a strong future for the Empire, even if that means making enemies in court. But Mins magic isnt entirely under her control, and she must learn how to tame it before it consumes her . . . and the entire realm. Lu and Min are set for a confrontation that cant be stopped. But the Empire faces threats greater than their rivalry, and even if they choose to stand together, it could cost them both the throne-or their lives. Review.
