Description

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth comes the beginning of an epic romantic dystopian fantasy.

This deluxe hardcover edition features a map, designed endpapers, and black sprayed edges.

Elegy Ahn did not ask for destiny to find her. She is content with her life as a soldier, defending her small country from the Talusar, a powerful nation that worships a deadly Fever. The Fever kills many of its victims, but some return with mysterious gifts.

Then Elegy is summoned to hear a prophecy alongside Rava Vidar, one of the Talusar’s most ruthless generals. Face to face, they learn that one of them will lead their people to victory over the other, but neither knows which of them it will be.

At the centre of both their fates is a man. A man Elegy is told she will fall in love with.

In a single day, Elegy’s life, purpose, and future are overturned. As she and Rava are pulled towards an unavoidable collision, the fate of their nations hangs in the balance. When they finally meet on the path destiny has laid before them, only one will be left standing.

Elegy intends to make sure it is her.
