From #1 New York Times-bestselling author Black cones the first book in The Folk of the Air, a stunning new series about a mortal girl who finds herself caught in a web of royal faerie intrigue.
But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself..
In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed.
To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences.
Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.
But many of the fey despise humans.
Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality.
Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie.
I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
I hate him more than all the others.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest.
They will live forever.
They\'re beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire.
Of course I want to be like them.
