Kateřina Jirčíková Knihy

Adena and Paedyn have always been inseparable. Fate brought them together when they were young, but friendship ensured they’d always protect each other and the home they built in the slums of Loot. But now Paedyn – an Ordinary – has been selected for The Purging Trials, which means almost certain death.Now alone in Loot, Adena must fend for herself. After attempting to steal, it’s a mysterious man from the market who comes to her rescue. Mak’s shadowy past and secretive power set him apart from the other low-level Elites of Loot. And as the pair team up to see their loved ones before the Trials begin, the quest tests their loyalty, their love, and their lives…

She fled a betrayer. She's returned as a bride-to-be. Paedyn Gray was prepared for a death sentence, not a proposal. After killing the king, marriage to his son, Kitt, was the last thing she - or the kingdom - expected. But in her role as queen, Paedyn would have the chance to unite Ilya and create a kingdom where Ordinaries live without fear. With a decision looming, she battles between her head, heart, and the hidden Trials she now faces. Through it all, Kai Azer fights to call her his, even if it means defying his king. The choice between sacrifice and self has never been more difficult... or deadly.

Kráľovstvo Ilya práve potlačilo povstanie Odboja, ale pokoj sa nedostavil. Paedyn Grayová, patríca k Obyčajným, prežila Očistné skúšky a po tom, čo v sebaobrane zabila kráľa, je na úteku pred tým, komu začala až príliš dôverovať. Kai Azer je teraz ilyjským Vymahatelem. Novým kráľom je jeho brat Kitt, ktorý ho poveril, aby Paedyn našiel a priviedol mu ju. Kai stopuje Paedyn cez nebezpečnú púšť Spálenište do útrob nepriateľského mesta Dor a v hlbokej duši si praje, aby ju nemusel prenasledovať. V meste, kde Elity nič neznamenajú, sa však role lovca a koristi môžu ľahko meniť – a vnútorný boj medzi túžbou a zmyslom pre povinnosť môže byť smrteľný.
