Description
'A mesmerizing debut fantasy.' - Rebecca Yarros, No.1 New York Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing and Iron Flame
'Devious, driven and full of emotion.' - Marie Rutkoski, New York Times bestselling author of The Hollow Heart and The Winner's Curse
When you play with fire, someone always gets burned. In this cut-throat debut YA fantasy brimming with blackmail, heists, and a slow-burn dark romance, a princess with no morals must choose: survival, love, or revenge? Perfect for fans of Six of Crows and These Violent Delights.
Blackmail. Murder. Betrayal. There isn't anything Teia won't do to stay alive.
An outcast princess in her own kingdom, Teia is half Erisian, half Shaylani, and a formidable opponent who abandoned her morals long ago. She's survived innumerable assassination attempts, all of which have been orchestrated by her half-brother. But once he is crowned king, nothing can save her.
When a rebellion seeks to overthrow the monarchy, Teia grabs at the chance to infiltrate the rebels . . . and trade their lives for her own. But as she gains their trust - and maybe more with surly rebel Tobias - Teia begins to question everything she knows. What if the rebels are right? What if the monarchy should be destroyed?
Or what if Teia took the throne for herself?

Reviews / Votes
A mesmerizing debut fantasy -- Rebecca Yarros, No.1 New York Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing and Iron Flame Inferno's Heir is an absolute delight. Teia is the kind of character you'll follow anywhere-devious, driven, and full of emotion. The world is so rich and intriguing that I sank into it and never wanted to leave. -- Marie Rutkoski, New York Times bestselling author of The Hollow Heart and The Winner's Curse Wang's tightly written narrative deftly unravels surprising twists . . . A fantastical romp filled with intrigue and suspense. -- Kirkus Reviews A fire-wielding princess infiltrates a rebel army to barter her own freedom in Wang's pulpy fantasy debut . . . Suspenseful plotting and adrenaline-inducing action delivered at a steady clip . . . an exciting adventure. -- Publisher's Weekly Full of court intrigue, assassinations, prison breaks, and heists, this is a dangerous and riveting story that's part Six of Crows, part Game of Thrones, and part The Poppy War. I adored Teia, the novel's relentlessly fierce, morally gray heroine, and rooted for her even in the most impossible situations. Absolutely recommend if you're looking for a book to devour in one sitting. -- Jamie Pacton, bestselling author of The Absinthe Underground and The Vermilion Emporium Inferno's Heir is just like its protagonist: destructive, deceptive, and heart-wrenching. Wang creates a world where heroes and villains are two sides of the same coin and fates unfold with the flip of a playing card. Prepare to fall in love-and fall apart-in this dark fantasy done right. -- Vanessa Le, author of The Last Bloodcarver A stunning concoction of political intrigue, found family, and nail-biting tension. Inferno's Heir is destined to be a book people obsess over. -- Jaysen Headley, global top 5 BookTok influencer @ezeekatMore details
