Earthbound

by Saara El-Arifi

First published 2026

The Fates have spoken, and what they revealed about the obeah has fractured everything Lettle thought she knew. She sets out on foot with Alder, the last human alive, chasing a truth that the fae court would rather keep buried. Grief over her separation from King Rayan slows her steps, but she keeps moving. Alder has his own reason to press forward. He has no memory of his childhood, and the cave where his story started is the only lead he has. What waits for him there will change him. Back at court, Yeeran has put down her sword and picked up a diplomat's tongue. She is trying to broker peace with an elven army that lies as easily as it breathes. A broken heart does not make that easier. Secrets travel through this world the way tremors travel through stone, touching everything at once. Love sits at the center of the damage, and so does power. This is the final book in Saara El-Arifi's number one Sunday Times bestselling Faebound series.
