The Princess Bride meets Game of Thrones in this commercial YA trilogy from acclaimed fantasy author Sarah Henning.
Princess Amarande is finally on the verge of having everything she wants. To be with her true love Luca, no one nor law standing in the way. To rule Ardenia as queen outright, no marriage necessary, as Luca does the same with the reformed Torrence. To rebuild the continent of The Sand and Sky into a place not defined by archaic, patriarchal laws, but by the will of its people.
However, threats await in the shadows of Amarande's hoped-for happily ever after. One expected and deadly to both her love and every one of her objectives. The other, unexpected, and arising with a vicious aim: revenge at any cost. Against the princess who killed him, the boy whose love made her do it, and the continent cruel enough to deserve his rage.
The King Will Kill You is the epic, pulse-pounding conclusion to Sarah Henning's Kingdoms of Sand and Sky trilogy.
At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

      Strong women rise and fall amid more pop-culture memes and references as the "smirking patriarchy" strikes back in this follow-up to 2021's The Queen Will Betray You. Aftershocks of the previous episode's ending still resounding, tempestuous 16-year-old Queen Amarande calls fellow monarchs of Sand and Sky together to make a new "modern and exciting" alliance--only to have infuriatingly condescending challenges to her legitimacy threaten to rob her of throne, power, and even her heart's companion and sword practice partner, Luca. Meanwhile, not only is her murderous mother still on the loose, but Renard, crown prince of Pyrenee and the literally rotten ex-fiance she fatally knifed at the altar, has miraculously returned from the dead (shades of Jon Snow!) bent on vengeance. Fair doses of steamy snogging, savage combat during which there always seems to be time for tart exchanges--"Your black wolf is dead, boy, and you will be, too!" (yes, even the dog dies)--and furious expostulations about misogynistic gender expectations later, Amarande leaves her more strategically astute but less idealistic foes spitted and has taken definitive action to "build the Sand and Sky back better than before" ...clearing the decks for a final exchange of vows uninterrupted by knives or poisons. The cast is predominantly White. A score-settling third volume that really sticks it to, and in, the man. (kingdom guide) (Fantasy. 14-18)
