Part of A Court of Thorns and Roses
First published 2026
Koschei the Deathless has been chained to a mountain lake for thousands of years, but his influence is spreading. Across the Fae territories, his allies are moving, and their target is the human lands. The Night Court refuses to watch innocents fall. The problem is that Prythian is still bleeding from the Hybern War, and the people who once held it together are barely holding themselves together. Betrayals have come to light. Truths have landed like blows. The bonds between those who rule and protect the Night Court are frayed in ways that feel permanent. Rhysand and his inner circle must find a way back to one another before Koschei's reach becomes impossible to stop. Old alliances need rebuilding. Trust needs rebuilding. Everything does. The harmony that once defined them is shattered, and the only path to stopping what is coming runs straight through the wreckage of what they have already lost.
