Beschreibung

The old gods are growing restless. An ancient evil is stirring. Can they stop the coming storm?
Mercenary Casia Greythorne cares about two things: Completing whatever her latest job is, and earning enough coin to buy the expensive medicine that’s keeping her mentor alive.
So when the king himself offers her a job, she can’t resist the massive reward he offers—even if it means working with Captain Elander, the arrogant, mysterious right-hand to that king.
Her partner may be infuriating, but at least their mission seems simple and quick enough: Investigate the origins of the strange plague that’s been ravaging their empire, help find a cure, and then call it a day.
But in a land brimming with old magic and meddling gods, nothing is ever that simple, and nothing is ever what it seems.
As the bodies pile up and strange monsters begin to wreak havoc throughout the realms, Cas and Elander will have to work together to protect their world whether they like it or not. Because one thing is clear: Something ancient and evil is stirring in the shadows of that world.
And their empire will not survive its full unleashing.
Filled with luscious world-building, banter-filled enemies-to-lovers romance, and epic battles, this first book in the Shadows and Crowns series is the perfect next read for fans of Throne of Glass! Don’t miss your chance to grab it for the low, special pre-order price!

damn it that was amazing and just a masterpiece. We might have a new fantasy series to challenge the OGs at hand!!! I freakin love the world setting! Its so damn amazing. We have rivaling kingdoms. Power seizing gods. Magic. Friendship. Romance. This book simply has everything. I stan our main character - Casia Greythorn. She is what I want from a fantasy fmc - she can fight. She doesn’t let fear hold her back. She has humor. And the portrayal of her traumata and struggles regarding this was just heartbreaking and so relatable and well done! And the dynamic with her friend group is just adorable and heartwarming. I loved each and every one if this group. They are all individuals that contribute their own essential part to this power gang - and to this book!! And damn you Elander, commander of the kings army. I fell for him. I fell hart. He’s just exactly what I needed him to be - there was no way around him. He reminds me of Casteel from fbaa and also Rip from plated prisoner. So naturally as hard as I fell for those two - I fell for him too. He also gives me somehow huge Henry Cavil Geralt of Rivia vibes - another plus for him. He is unapologetically attractive and basically the embodiement of 'can fight and fuck‘. And the tension and banter between him and Cas was just to die for. They fight. They are real enemies hating each other. And they cant stand each other’s present just as much as they cant stay away from each other. This series is perfection when you want a fantasy that is plot heavy but doesn’t lack with romance to die for. This series is the perfect double deal. You dont have to settle for one. The shadows and crowns series gives it all to you! Plot that leaves you anxious and on the edge if your seat. Romance to leave you giggling and smiling like an idiot. Friendship that is heartwarming and makes you just happy. THIS IS A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE. Especially fans of fbaa who where left disappointed by how the series developed after book one. This series holds it up until the end! Also if you love Throne of Glass - this os for you then! And for everyone who claims to love fantasy. 5

Magisch, Spicy, voller plottwists

Das Buch war mein Jahreshighlight. Eigentlich lese ich keine englischen Bücher, habe mich jetzt aber daran gewagt und muss sagen: ich habe nichts erwartet, was in diesem Buch passiert. Das Magiesystem ist einzigartig, die Geschichte ist fantastisch und die tension zwischen den Charakteren ist sehr gut. Und über das ganze Buch hinweg stellt man Vermutungen auf, glaubt an Dinge, die dann doch wieder nicht so sind. Es ist fast unmöglich genau zu wissen, was geschehen wird. Am Ende war ich so überrascht, dass ich sofort nach Buch 2 griff. Aber Achtung: Vor dieser Reihe sollte man "Queen of cursed things" lesen - beziehungsweise die Reihe vorher lesen. Das hier baut darauf auf! Einfach WOW
