can't draw. This is a problem, because as long as she can remember, she has ‘done
the art.’ She thinks she's having an existential crisis. And she might be

wanders the urban ruins of Philadelphia. Or maybe she's finally waking up to
the tornado that is her family, the tornado that six years ago sent her
once-beloved older brother flying across the country for a reason she can't
quite recall. After decades of staying together ‘for the kids’ and building a
family on a foundation of lies and domestic violence, Sarah's parents have
reached the end. Now Sarah must come to grips with years spent sleepwalking in
the ruins of their toxic marriage. As Sarah herself often observes, nothing
about her pain is remotely original—and yet it still hurts.” –Amazon

Dorian and Aelin back home, their survival might lie with Chaol and Nesryn
convincing its rulers to ally with them. But what they discover in Antica will
change them both--and be more vital to saving Erilea than they could have
imagined.” –Amazon
