Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black returns to the opulent world of Elfhame in this thrilling new duology, following Jude's brother Oak, and the Changeling Queen, Suren.
Eight years have passed since Elfhame avoided a bloody war and established a period of peace. But in the icy north, Lady Nore of the brutal Court of Teeth has been amassing Folk to what Elfhame can only assume is a sinister purpose.
Suren, the former child queen of the Court of Teeth, has returned to spy on the human family who raised her, never knowing she was a changeling. But she is still haunted by the merciless torments she endured at the hands of Lady Nore.
But even in the mortal world danger lurks in every corner -- and one terrible night Suren is captured by the Roach, the shadowy goblin spy of Elfhame. The Roach brings Suren face-to-face with the prince of Faerie and the boy she was once promised to in marriage. Now seventeen, Oak enlists the help of Suren on a mission that will thrust her back into the monstrous court of teeth and all it's horrifying glory.
