Description

The #1 New York Times bestselling series!

Perfect for fans of George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones series, Glass Sword is the high-stakes follow up to the #1 New York Times bestselling Red Queen.

Mare Barrow's blood is red—the color of common folk—but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control. The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince—the friend—who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.

Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors. But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?

Discover more wonders in the world of Red Queen with Broken Throne: A Red Queen Collection, a companion novel with stories from fan favorites and new voices, featuring never-before-seen maps, flags, bonus scenes, journal entries, and much more exclusive content!

Plus don't miss Realm Breaker! Irresistibly action-packed and full of lethal surprises, this stunning fantasy series from Victoria Aveyard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Red Queen series, begins where hope is lost and asks: When the heroes have fallen, who will take up the sword?

    Red queen was the best of the books so far but I am only in kings cage, the books seem to get more dramatic and more into cal and mares romance, I will recommend if you want a book with a action and romance. Their is a lot of plot twist that really annoy me but it’s a book and needs to keep moving so it’s unpredictable in some cases. I have fallen in love with the series and recommend to teenagers if they will like to read something to keep them up at night.

    I definitely think the first book was better, but this book is still amazing. I see a lot of reviews rating it low because Mare is selfish, but come on. It adds drama to the book and nobody’s perfect. And yes Cal and Mares relationship is a bit bumpy, but its obvious they care for eachother.
