'Pleasantly grim and emotionally complex' – Kirkus Reviews Here Pyrre hopes to find love – and end it with the edge of her knife. So a month before the trial begins, she returns to the violent city of her birth, where she once offered an abusive father to the god. Pyrre’s not afraid to die, but she hates to fail. However, Pyrre has never been in love, time is short, and if she fails she’ll be given to her god. To pass the trial, she will have fourteen days to kill seven people detailed in an ancient song, including one true love, ‘who will not come again’. The problem isn’t killing, as Pyrre has spent her life training for this. Or she will be, if she can pass her final trial.
And she’s not an assassin, but a priestess. It doesn’t capture the beauty of her devotion to Ananshael, God of Death. Pyrre Lakatur doesn’t like the description skullsworn. Schwab, Sunday Times bestselling author of A Darker Shade of Magicįor one apprentice assassin, the clock is ticking.
