Summary
Victoria Aveyard: The Glass Sword
Mara Barrow's blood is red, but her power to control lightning has turned her into a weapon that the Silver Royal Court desperately wants to possess and wield. The new young king Maven tries to find and take revenge on Mara, but she learns something encouraging: she is not the only one of the Reds with special powers. Therefore, she embarks on a mission to find the other newly created ones in order to unite them in the fight against the cruel king. Soon, Mare discovers that the fight against Maven requires many victims, from all conflicting parties. Will she succumb under the weight of all the lives she has to give for the uprising, or will her heart be hardened by so many deceptions and betrayals? The lightning-fast second installment of the Crimson Queen series brings the climax of the battle between the growing rebel army and those loyal to the king, and forces Mare to face the darkness that is growing in her soul.
