Immerse yourself in the second book the Castles in their Bones series from the New York Times
bestselling author of the Ash Princess series. 'A page-turner that brilliantly blends magic
romance and adventure' Booklist Seduction. Conquest. The Crown. Princesses Daphne Beatriz
and Sophronia have trained their entire lives for one purpose: to bring down nations. Their
mother Empress Margaraux of Bessemia is determined to rule the continent of Vesteria and her
daughters are her weapons. Promised for marriage since birth they are her ticket across enemy
lines. And also her decoys. Still not even Empress Margaraux can control the stars. Sent to
their new kingdoms orders in hand the princesses have found their own paths changing the
course of their mother's plans entirely - and tragically. Sophronia chose love and for that
she lost her life. Daphne and Beatriz can hardly believe their sister is dead but both are
determined to avenge her. And now separated by a continent - and their mother's lies - they
see more clearly with every passing day that they might not be working toward the same end. The
stars whisper of death but Daphne and Beatriz are just beginning to understand the true power
coursing through their veins. And their mother will do anything to keep them under her thumb -
even if it means killing them all. PRAISE FOR LAURA SEBASTIAN 'Sebastian weaves the story
