Good luck putting this one down." -Virginia Boecker, author of The Witch Hunter series " A smart, feminist twist on a traditional tale of a fallen heroine, with plenty of court intrigue, love, and lies to sweeten the deal. " A darkly enchanting page-turner you won't be able to put down."- Bustle Theo knows that freedom comes at a price, but she is determined to find a way to save her country without losing herself. Something an Astrean Queen has never done. And according to Dragonsbane, an army can only be produced if Theo takes a husband. Only, securing an army means she must trust her aunt, the dreaded pirate Dragonsbane. But her people remain enslaved under the Kaiser's rule, and now she is thousands of miles away from them and her throne. She has taken back her rightful title, and a hostage-Prinz Soren. He didn't realize that a sharp mind is the deadliest weapon. The Kaiser thought his prisoner weak and defenseless. He took Theo's country and kept her prisoner, crowning her Ash Princess-a pet to toy with and humiliate for ten long years. The Kaiser murdered Theodosia's mother, the Fire Queen, when Theo was only six. The second installment in the New York Times bestselling series "made for fans of Victoria Aveyard and Sabaa Tahir" ( Bustle), Lady Smoke is an epic new fantasy about a throne cruelly stolen and a girl who must fight to take it back for her people.
