THE EPIC ROMANTASY THAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT. In a world where divine power bleeds into the mortal realm, Thais Morvaren has mastered the art of deception. Secretly, she hides her ability to forge weapons from starlight.

But, when Thais’ powers are exposed, she finds herself forced into the deadly Trials of Ascension –where those with divine powers are given the choice: Ascend. . .or die trying.

Worse yet, her twin brother is forced into the trials alongside her.

Trapped in a competition she never wanted to enter, she transforms her fear into purpose: to kill Olinthar, King of the Gods.

But to take down a god, she must become one, even if it costs her everything – including the dark prince whose secrets rival her own. . .
