Mortal enemies. Fated mates. Lindy thought she escaped the werewolf-killing cult that raised her. In the small town of Mariposa, she left behind her years of assassin training and the dark oaths she took as a child, and finally claimed a peaceful life of her own. But then Ragnarok arrived and the magical curse she was given by the Order did too. Savagely bitten by a werewolf as a child, Wes has come to an uneasy truce with his wolf. Life among the pack is one thing, but he refuses to come near a human, much less fall in love with one. So when his wolf decides a certain feisty but secretive brunette is his fated mate, he commits only to staying away from her for fear of the beast inside him. But when Lindy mysteriously vanishes, all bets are off. Following the urging of his wolf, Wes sets off to find her, determined to protect her in the zombie-filled wasteland the world has become. On the run from the cult and against all of Ragnarok, can a werewolf and a slayer find true love, or will the past catch up to them both?

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A princess in exile, a shapeshifting dragon, six enchanted cranes, and an unspeakable curse... Drawing from fairy tales and East Asian folklore, this original fantasy from the author of Spin the Dawn is perfect for fans of Shadow and Bone. "A dazzling fairytale full of breathtaking storytelling." --Stephanie Garber, New York Times bestselling author of Caraval Shiori'anma, the only princess of Kiata, has a secret. Forbidden magic runs through her veins. Normally she conceals it well, but on the morning of her betrothal ceremony, Shiori loses control. At first, her mistake seems like a stroke of luck, forestalling the wedding she never wanted. But it also catches the attention of Raikama, her stepmother. A sorceress in her own right, Raikama banishes the young princess, turning her brothers into cranes. She warns Shiori that she must speak of it to no one: for with every word that escapes her lips, one of her brothers will die. Penniless, voiceless, and alone, Shiori searches for her brothers, and uncovers a dark conspiracy to seize the throne. Only Shiori can set the kingdom to rights, but to do so she must place her trust in a paper bird, a mercurial dragon, and the very boy she fought so hard not to marry. And she must embrace the magic she's been taught all her life to forswear--no matter what the cost. Weaving together elements of The Wild Swans, Cinderella, the legend of Chang E, and the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, Elizabeth Lim has crafted a fantasy like no other, and one that will stay with readers long after they've turned the last page. "A stunning remake of a fairytale. Six Crimson Cranes is the perfect blend of whimsy and ferociousness, with twists and turns that will tug at your heartstrings." —Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights "Fast-paced excitement is balanced with a satisfyingly intricate plot that weaves in elements from Western fairy tales and East Asian folklore." —SLJ, starred review “A richly imagined landscape . . . vibrant, fast-paced.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review
