I didnt want to rule the Risen. Wreak a little havoc upon them, though? That was something else entirely.
Bell Silverleaf is a liar.
Its how shes survived. Its how all Treesingers have survived, after they were invaded by the Risen and their gods.
But nowthanks to some political maneuveringBell is in the Queens Test. Shes one of seven girls competing in deadly challenges to determine who rules for the next twenty-five years. If Bell wins, shell use the power to help her people and get her revenge on the Risen.
But Bell doesnt know how much shes been lied to. Shes part of a conspiracy stretching back generations, and shes facing much bigger dangers than the Queens Test. Shes up against the gods themselves.
Getting hold of that crown might just be the least of her problems.
