"Seductive and merciless, The Debtor's Game turns fae politics into something intimate and dangerous."--Jean Kwok, New York Times bestselling author

"Profoundly dystopian . . . This is fantasy at its most hard-hitting."--Shalini Abeysekara, author of This Monster of Mine

Debtor: One who is owned; a faerie.

In the kingdom of Amyria, the High Fae rule all. Faeries are born into servitude to pay off tattooed rings of debt, which can be added to at any time by the mercurial Fae. It is the way of things.

Avery serves under Lady Kassandra in the Versara Palace, the pinnacle of high society, where she becomes tangled in a deadly game of politics and power. Avery must help Kassandra escape her violent brother by catching the eye of the soon-to-be-crowned King Maxian.

But things go horribly wrong at the coronation, forcing Avery to split her loyalties between Kassandra and Maxian, where one wrong move could cost Avery her family. When Avery discovers earth-shattering secrets about the High Fae, she stops playing fair--for the game is rigged . . . and she just might find the key to freeing them all.

"Stunning from beginning to end" (Library Journal, starred review), The Debtor's Game is a dark fantasy novel of staggering scope and imagination--one that shows the best way to deal with an unjust system is to tear it out by its roots.
