Description
A gripping tale of magic and logic, fate and choice, and a deadly love, in which the prince of a hi-tech city in the sky falls into a goddess’s ancient land, ruled by magicians and prophecy.
Prince North’s home is in the sky, in a gleaming city held aloft by intricate unknown technology. But North believes his sky island is sinking. Its engines are failing, and the key to saving his home is to venture to the place the engines were first created.
Nimh is the living goddess of her people on the surface, responsible for providing answers, direction - hope. But in the midst of the surface’s worst crisis yet, a mist that spreads madness and poison, doubts have arisen among the people about Nimh’s divinity. She must find a way to manifest her power - before she is overthrown and all is lost.
North’s and Nimh’s lives are entwined - though their hearts can never be. Linked by a terrifying prophecy and caught between duty and fate, they must choose to either save their people or succumb to the bond that is forbidden to them.

Featured Reviews
I loved this book! I haven’t read anything by Meghan Spooner before but I loved the Illuminae and Aurora Rising series that Amie Kauffman has written with Jay Kristoff! I love that we see both perspectives of North and Nimh and keep alternating between the two! They both have led very different lives, but their fates are intertwined by their ancestors. If you love fantasy novels then this is for you! I can’t wait for the sequel! FYI there is a cliff hangar!
The narrators were brilliant and perfect for the story! 🫶
Thank you to the publishers for a review copy of the audiobook via NetGalley! 🙌
