Daughters of Misery

The three daughters of the Demon Lord must rely on each other for survival in this explosive new YA fantasy duology from Judy I. Lin, the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of A Magic Steeped in Poison.

The Demon Lord jealously guards his three daughters in his palace of stone, but at the enthronement ceremony of his new consort, Lady Yunyao, he suddenly declares all three of them eligible for marriage. That night, the sisters make a vow: They will remain loyal to each other, and will do whatever is necessary to protect themselves from the royal court's scheming—just as they've done since their mother was murdered five years ago.

Ziyan, a fierce and talented warrior, enters a deadly hunt in order to win their father's favor and keep her younger sisters from being sold off in marriage. Yueting, a gifted strategist often underestimated because of her beauty, methodically unearths the consort's twisted plots to maintain power over the throne—and in the process also unearths an ancient and dangerous magic. And Weiying, the curious scholar with a kind heart, would do anything to save her sisters—even if it means returning to the cold and cruel Demon House she grew up in.

Those who would manipulate the three daughters of the Demon Lord for their own political gain think they're just prizes to be won, mindless jewels in a king's crown.

They are wrong.
