Wings can no longer be hidden when the blood moon forces every secret into the lightPrincess Kira's greatest test of her life is just beginning. When the ancient blood moon rises over the war games - a traditional competition between the armies of Latavia and Romaland - it triggers a mystical judgment that transforms everyone on the field. The cruel become monsters. And those who have lived with compassion evolve into something extraordinary.
As soldiers on both sides panic over transformations that reveal their true natures, Kira must contend with threats from every direction. Prince William, the power-hungry ruler of Romaland, has consumed magical creatures to gain their abilities and now plots to exploit the chaos. Charles, Kira's former mentor and trusted knight, has turned saboteur - kidnapping Kira and undermining both armies in a desperate bid to stop evolution and preserve the old order he fears losing.
With her kingdom fracturing, Kira makes a daring choice: she stops hiding. Standing before both armies with her wings spread wide, she declares what she truly is and challenges everyone to face the blood moon's mirror honestly. But inspiring words alone cannot stop a prince who has become something barely human, a traitor who believes he is saving civilization, or ancient forces stirring beneath the earth.
Kira and Henry must race against the blood moon's seven-day countdown to unite two hostile armies, expose the conspiracies tearing them apart, and prove that choosing peace over violence and acceptance over fear is not weakness - it is the only path to survival. A story about identity, courage, and the transformative power of truth, Book 4 of the Kira and Henry Series, War Games, combines epic fantasy adventure with timely themes of acceptance and the cost of hiding who you really are.
For fans of Shadow and Bone and An Ember in the Ashes-a princess with forbidden wings must choose between hiding her truth and saving her kingdom.
