The Fall of the Crowned King

For fans of Sarah H. Parker, Cassandra Clare, and Kerri Maniscalco, the villainous shapeshifter Dianna and tortured God King Samkiel return for a war to end all wars in this new, never-before-published epic romantasy from New York Times bestselling author Amber V. Nicole.

“Amber V. Nicole doesn’t just write about magic, she creates it.” —BRYNNE WEAVER, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Butcher and Blackbird

THE FINAL WAR BEGINS, AND THE CONSEQUENCES CAN MEAN COMPLETE DESOLATION.

As Nismera grapples with the promise of victory after her greatest enemy is seemingly defeated, a new, darker threat arises. As the power of the universe shifts and accords are struck, no longer is it gods against gods, but a fight against monsters.

An unlikely alliance forms when Dianna, Kaden, and Isaiah are thrust into a reality not their own. Forced to work with those from their pasts will either make or break the three of them. In searching for a way back, they discover that an old relic may be the key to survival across the realms.

A RACE AGAINST TIME ITSELF IS SET IN MOTION FOR THEM TO RETURN TO THEIR WORLD BEFORE THERE IS NO WORLD LEFT.
