“We all have darkness inside us, Rielle,” he said, his voice rough. “That is what it means to be human.” While risking her life to save the boy she secretly loves, Rielle Dardenne unleashes a power hidden within her. Now, she is more than herself: she is one of the Queens, foretold by prophecy to either destroy the world or save it. As she is put through trials to reveal her power as the Sun Queen, the Queen of Light, she is woven into a story centuries in the making. But will she be able to be the Queen of Light that her kingdom needs, or lead it to destruction? Centuries later, Eliana Ferracorra is a bounty hunter and a petty thief. To her, the ancient stories of the Blood Queen Rielle are mere fairy tales. But as she is wrapped up in an empirical conspiracy, she discovers that such tales are far from myth—and that she herself may be the Sun Queen destined to save her world. With “Furyborn,” Claire Legrand once again shows that she is the master of every genre she sets her pen to. With lush prose, detailed world-building, and tragic characters you can’t help but root for, she has woven a masterful tale of personal destiny and the struggle to be an individual. POSSIBLE TRIGGER WARNINGS: Graphic violence, mentions of sex, death of loved ones
