Collecting Crowns - Paperback

by Jay Montana (Author)

Omnia Melania knows one thing for certain: she truly knows nothing.

Raised during her mother's Great Cleansing, Melania was taught that the world would be better without Nihils- the ones who are born without magic.

When a man she once knew in childhood is condemned alongside his sons, Melania is forced to watch their gruesome torture at the hand of her mother. Unable to save them, she ends the man's life herself, using a sickle imbued with her essence. It is the only kindness she can offer before the Cleansing claims the rest.

Except Erebus, the Dead Prince of Tenebrae, knows what she did. He carries the artifact now, and he understands its true cost far better than she does. Caught between reclaiming a throne he never wanted and remaining in the shadows of a kingdom that tried to kill him, Erebus collides with Melania in the aftermath of her choice.

As guilt, power, and truth begin to unravel the world she was raised to obey, Melania and Erebus must decide whether they will become the change the kingdom fears...

or remain silent while it burns itself alive.
