A Liar's Twisted Tongue

For fans of The Poppy War , The Atlas Six , and The Cruel Prince. Desdemona Althenia has spent her life in the shadows, hiding volatile magic that could kill her if unleashed. But when fate traps her within the brutal walls of Visnatus Academy, power is finally within reach. Prince Lucian Aibek lives beneath the weight of a crumbling empire and a controlling family. Desdemona's fire may be his chance at freedom-or his downfall. As their fates entwine, Desdemona and Lucian must decide how much of themselves they're willing to sacrifice-and whether wielding power is worth the price of becoming a monster.
