Inhaltsangabe

Sinister sorcery. Gallows humor. A queer romance so glorious it could be right out of fae legend itself. Master of One is a fantasy unlike any other.

Rags the thief has never met a pocket he couldn’t pick, but when he’s captured by a sorcerer with world-ending plans, he realizes even he is in over his head. Forced to use his finely honed skills to nab pieces of an ancient fae relic, Rags is stunned to discover that those “relics” just happen to be people:

A distractingly handsome Fae prince,

A too-honorable Queensguard deserter,

A scrappy daughter of a disgraced noble family,

A deceptively sweet-natured prince,

A bona fide member of the Resistance,

And him. Rags.

They may all be captives in the sorcerer’s terrible scheme, but that won’t stop them from fighting back. And, sure, six unexpected allies against one wicked enemy doesn’t make for generous odds, but lucky for him, Rag’s not generous―he’s smart. And he has a plan that just might get them out of this alive.

With the heist and intrigue of Six of Crows and the dark fairy tale feel of The Cruel Prince, this young adult fantasy debut will have readers rooting for a pair of reluctant heroes as they take on a world-ending fae prophecy, a malicious royal plot, and, most dangerously of all, their feelings for each other.

Six outcasts. One world-ending prophecy. And a heist that will unite them―or tear them apart.

• Queer Romance: Rags was hired to capture a handsome Fae prince, not fall for him. But in close quarters, their animosity sparks into something far more dangerous.
• Heist Fantasy: For fans of Six of Crows, this high-stakes quest to assemble a team of living "relics" is packed with twists, turns, and gallows humor.
• Enemies to Allies: A thief, a prince, a deserter, and a noble’s daughter are forced to work together. They might save the world―if they don’t kill each other first.
• Dark Fae Magic: Discover a world of sinister sorcery, ancient fae legends, and a magic system that could end the world, inspired by the tone of The Cruel Prince.
