Description

Almost twenty years after the barrier between Earth and the Otherworld fell in the Fae Wars, Budapest is balancing on the precipice. A battle for dominance is brewing between the elite fae and the privileged humans in Eastern Europe. The prejudice between the sides is bubbling with hate and violence.

Nineteen-year-old human, Brexley, has grown up in privilege, but not without heartbreak. After being orphaned, she is taken in by General Markos, living in a walled city rife with power grabs and ruthless political games. Then one night the course of her life changes, and Brexley is thrown into the most feared prison in the east. Halalhaz, the House of Death—where you go in but don’t come out.

She must learn to live with the worst of fae and human criminals. The rule of hierarchy puts humans on the bottom, where the only way to survive each day is to make alliances with the fae.

Here she meets the sexy, vicious legend, Warwick Farkas. A myth among man and fae. He is as brutal, cruel, arrogant, and as lethal as the lore says he is, ruling the prison with unchallenged authority. Brexley can’t deny an intense draw to him, one that might cost her life.

If The Games don’t take her out first—

A fight to the death where only one survives.

    This is a dark book but written really well. I’m the type of person who wants to know what happens in a book before reading it so spoilers ahead!! The book starts off in a castle where the price and adoptive (main character) princess are robbing trains at night and going to galas in the day. The princess is told she must marry a man she hates so they go to rob a train one last time and get caught. The prince goes back to his life and the princess is in the worlds worst prison where she must kill to survive. The worst inmate breaks him and her out.. to use her as leverage for his freedom from the fae king.
  • Good storyline

    I for the most part enjoyed the book but the sexual parts were too intense too fast and dragged a bit. I mostly just skimmed those parts. I am engaged enough to read the next one tho just because I like the whole layout of the post apocalyptic story she made
  • So disappointed

    I had heard great reviews of this on TikTok. I feel I was completely mislead. The book dragged on. I only finished bc I was hoping something would be worth it at the end.

    If you can get past the awful names such as Brexley (like what?) this book is amazing. From plot to lore to spice. The writing style is edible and leaves you wanting more and more. Can’t wait to read book two!
  • Not reading on

    To much weird sexual innuendo. The book just quit, I assume you are supposed to want to read on but the main character (from the next book teaser) will do the same thing with a new ‘amazing hunk’.
  • Incredible

    I love that this is not another simpering paranormal romance novel with absolutely no reality when there is violence and terror. This is an excellent story line and the characters are well developed and the world fascinating.
