In Renthia, everything has a spirit. The trees, the rivers, the winds. And those spirits want humans dead.
Only the queen stands between civilization and destruction, wielding power strong enough to keep the spirits at bay. But queens are mortal. Fallible. And the spirits are growing restless.
Daleina never dreamed of ruling. She isn’t the strongest or the most gifted, but after witnessing the horrors of an unchecked spirit attack, she’ll do whatever it takes to protect her home. Ven, a disgraced warrior, has made it his mission to fight those spirits by any means necessary.
Together, they uncover a danger no one saw coming.
The Queen of Blood launches Sarah Beth Durst’s lush and lyrical fantasy series with fierce heroines, wild magic, and a world where nature bites back.
