Before Breeze-Felt-at-Moonrise was born, her people staged a coup. They tried to overthrow their queen. They failed.
Twenty years later, Breeze lives in exile with her people, all having sworn an oath to never again use the power that led to their downfall. An oath impossible for Breeze to keep: thanks to a symbol marked upon her body as an infant, Breeze possesses the forsaken magic of her ancestors, crystalline armor growing from her very flesh. Sparkling, beautiful, powerful. And as forbidden as it is dangerous.
Determined to prove she deserves a place among her kin, Breeze makes a bargain with an enigmatic linguist—a man searching for a lost word, who claims to know a way to destroy the crystals budding from her body.
A quest that, despite Breeze’s best efforts, may see her people drawn back into the politics, conflicts, and greed of the land they once betrayed.
Nuanced and intricate, Breeze Felt at Moonrise is a gorgeous new epic fantasy that combines the political leanings of The Raven Scholar with a fascinating, unique magic system—a darkly whimsical journey, perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher and Samantha Shannon.
