The Crownless Vowby Jess RaeA crown chose her. She chose to break it. Rivenna Veyne was never meant to sit on a throne. She was a servant, hidden in plain sight, until the living crown of Eldermoor rejected a prince and crossed the throne room floor to claim her instead. But the crown is not a blessing. It is a lock. Beneath Eldermoor sleeps an ancient hunger, and for generations, marked women have been sacrificed to keep it chained.
When Rivenna discovers the truth, she must decide whether to become the kingdom's next offering-or the woman who destroys the lie holding every throne together. At her side stands Caspian Morcant, a dangerous, loyal commander bound by old blood and older vows. He was raised to guard the crown. She needs him to help her end it.
