About the Book: Monsters once unleashed by the gods were meant to remind humans of their fragility—but I never needed divine proof to feel powerless. As a princess, my life was all ceremony and no substance—until a monster hunter arrived, a prince disrupted my world, and a forced marriage bound me to a magical treaty. Journeying to the realm’s most dangerous kingdom, I soon learned that myths hold truth, legends often lie—and to destroy monsters, I had to become one.
