This sequel to young adult romantasy Divine Mortals, which Kirkus Reviews recommended for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros, delivers sizzling romance and epic stakes.

Mona is tasked with saving the world and everyone she loves—but what can she do when even the gods have failed?

Though she’s blessed by the god of love with the ability to divine soulmates, Mona Arnett never wanted romance for herself. And yet, after a twisted game of murder and blackmail, she’s been forced to marry the king—and to part from the man she might truly love.

Worse, Mona was put on the throne to bring about the prophesied end of the world. And though she’s found a way to delay the apocalypse, she fears that in doing so she’s only extended the suffering of her subjects.

The people of Selledore face starvation and torture, the castle is besieged by demons, and the gods have turned their backs. But Mona isn’t alone. Second to the gods, divine mortals like her are the strongest beings alive, and there are seven of them scattered throughout the human and god realms. So Mona sets out to recruit the others to her cause. To stop the forces tearing her world apart and protect everyone she’s come to love, though, Mona will need far more than the combined wisdom and magic of her new allies. She may have to find a way to become more powerful than the gods themselves. . . .

Richly imagined and breathtakingly inventive, the stunning conclusion to Amanda M. Helander’s Divine Mortals duology delivers passion, intrigue, and desperate, devastating hope.
