Description

A gripping, propulsive YA fantasy novel from award-winning author and social media superstar Alex Aster, "Lightlark is an ebullient, fast-paced fantasy with a beautifully rendered world that seethes with intrigue, romance and tension. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough" (#1 New York Times bestselling author Sabaa Tahir)
 
An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller  
 
Welcome to the Centennial.
 
Every hundred years, the island of Lightlark appears for only 100 days to host a deadly game, where the rulers of six realms fight to break their curses and win unparalleled power. Each ruler has something to hide. Each curse is uniquely wicked. To break them--and save themselves and their realms--one ruler must die.
 
To survive, Isla Crown must lie, cheat, and betray. Even as love complicates everything . . .
 
Includes Select Exclusive Excerpts from Nightbane, the Second Book in the Lightlark Saga

Reviews

"Gorgeously lush and cinematic, Lightlark is the kind of fantasy that indulges all your senses, makes you swoon, and then knocks you sideways with twists. You won't want to put this down."

"Fantasy that reads like a breath of fresh air. Filled with secrets aplenty and enthralling magic, Lightlark will have you gasping then swooning while these valiant rulers fight to break their curses."

"If The Hunger Games was a dark fairy tale, you'd get the vicious and enchanting Lightlark. Get ready to be transported into a dazzling world where love is a death sentence and the romances between competitors are even fiercer than the curses plaguing the islands."

"Alex Aster's Lightlark is an ebullient, fast-paced fantasy, with a beautifully rendered world that seethes with intrigue, romance and tension. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough." 

"Grim, one of Isla's love interests, is a total scene-stealer. . .their steamy scenes are a definite highlight." 

"Isla's courage, determination, and compassion invest readers in her plight, imparting tension and drive. The story hits many well-loved and familiar beats, and sumptuously detailed feints, twists, and betrayal lend vibrancy and intrigue."
