Publisher Description

For fans of Samantha Shannon and Kristin Cashore, The Queen's Blade is a spellbinding and heart-wrenching finale to the Book of the Virago series.

Darkness spreads across the Lands of Lunamoor. Will Harlow and her allies arrive in time to stop the dark magic's influence, or will they succumb to its alluring power?

Still training her deadly magic, Harlow is unprepared for the news her allies bring. Shade and Desminda are separated, the former queen a prisoner in a hostile kingdom. Astrid has disappeared, and there's been no word from any of their other allies.

The Darkness has overtaken Thornewood and is poised to spread into other lands, corrupting Lunamoor's people and the very heart of magic. Few can stand against such power, but if Harlow doesn't, Lunamoor will fall.

But when a secret about the source of magic comes to light, it reveals a truth too devastating to bear. If they want to live and save their people, they may have to destroy the very heart of their kingdoms—magic itself.
