Product Information

The long-awaited companion to New York Times bestsellers Graceling and Fire Eight years after Graceling , Bitterblue is now queen of Monsea. But the influence of her father, a violent psychopath with mind-altering abilities, lives on. Her advisors, who have run things since Leck died, believe in a forward-thinking plan: Pardon all who committed terrible acts under Leck's reign, and forget anything bad ever happened. But when Bitterblue begins sneaking outside the castle--disguised and alone--to walk the streets of her own city, she starts realizing that the kingdom has been under the thirty-five-year spell of a madman, and the only way to move forward is to revisit the past. Two thieves, who only steal what has already been stolen, change her life forever. They hold a key to the truth of Leck's reign. And one of them, with an extreme skill called a Grace that he hasn't yet identified, holds a key to her heart.

  • Great read

    Takes time to get involved even though you know what’s coming.same great writing as Graceling but not as suspenseful, all in all, an excellent read.

  • Good book

    It’s a good book, but I would not have said it was in “good” condition. There was no dust jacket and there was a footprint in the cover and the spine was damaged. Either was though the book and pages are readable.
