From the bestselling author of To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods comes the highly anticipated second book in the captivating anti-colonial fantasy series, Gods Beyond the Skies. Yang Ruying must harness her power of Death as she secretly reunites with her childhood crush and navigates treacherous wartime alliances, all in a daring bid to save her realm.
The perfect read for fans of Red Queen, These Violent Delights and Iron Widow.
Antony, the second Prince of Rome, and his brothers Valentin and Cassius, are hellbent on securing a deal that will see the people of the Pangu empires forever be controlled by the Romans. Yang Ruying, The Girl Blessed by Death, has other plans, even if it means betraying the man she once thought she could trust.
Joining forces with her closest confidant and childhood crush, Baihu, they hatch a plan to rid Pangu of the Romans, growing closer by the day. But when disaster strikes, Ruying has no other choice but to turn to the Emperor of Er-Lang and the mysterious, handsome warrior by his side.
All signs point to The Girl Blessed by Death as the key to securing freedom, but with Antony seemingly always one step ahead, will Pangu ever be unshackled?
