Frozen meets Mad Max in this epic teen fantasy duology bursting with star-crossed romance, immortal heroines, and elemental magic, perfect for fans of Furyborn.
Generations of twin goddesses have long ruled Aeon. But seventeen years ago, one sister’s betrayal defied an ancient prophecy and split their world in two. The planet ceased to spin, and a Great Abyss now divides two realms: one cloaked in perpetual night, the other scorched by an unrelenting sun.
While one sister rules Aranth—a frozen city surrounded by a storm-wracked sea —her twin inhabits the sand-locked Golden City. Each goddess has raised a daughter, and each keeps her own secrets about her sister’s betrayal.
But when shadowy forces begin to call their daughters, Odessa and Haidee, back to the site of the Breaking, the two young goddesses —along with a powerful healer from Aranth, and a mouthy desert scavenger —set out on separate journeys across treacherous wastelands, desperate to heal their broken world. No matter the sacrifice it demands.

This was a powerful story full of riveting adventures, monsters, goddesses, and magic. I knew the moment I read the synopsis for this book that it would be one that I must read. This book truly has a little bit of everything that would make a lover of young adult fantasy a happy unicorn.
This story is told through four POVs. This may seem like a lot but it works so well for this story. Two of those POVs are the young goddesses of each realm and the other two are their companions. I just loved the characters in this book. I loved how each character had their own distinctive voice in the story. The relationships between the characters are marvelous to read.
The world-building in this book has so much depth and complexity. Most of what we learn about the world comes through the characters, their experiences along their journeys, and the bits of information that the goddesses have been told about how the world came to be the way it is. I am so eager to learn more about this world in the next installment of this series! I really love the development of the world and all the little bits and pieces that we see throughout the story that makes up the whole.
The premise of this book series is one that I find very creative and unique. I really love the idea of a dystopian fantasy world and the author did not disappoint in showing the reader what this world is like. I can honestly say that I have never read anything like this book before.
Overall, this book is a tantalizing journey from beginning to end that will fascinate you and keep you mesmerized. You will fall in love with this cast of characters and this very impressive fantasy world. I had so much fun with one and I am so eager to read the next book in this series!

Despite an unsettling resemblance to Japanese revenants, Rin always maintains her sense of hummus. Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, she keeps four pets: a dog, two birds, and a husband. Dances like the neighbors are watching.
She is represented by Rebecca Podos of the Helen Rees Agency. She is also fond of speaking in the third person, and may as well finish this short bio in this manner. While she does not always get to check her Goodreads page, she does answer questions posed to her here as promptly as she is able to.
My name is Vanessa a.k.a. Queen Alchemy. I am a 30-something-year-old mother of four nerdy, fantastic children. We live in the Midwest. I have a reading addiction, and I hope that I never recover! I'm the hugest nerd you can find with interests not limited to the following: comics (Batman and Captain America for the win!), science, computers, zombies, unicorns, Harry Potter, cartoons from the 80's & 90's, Frankenstein, history, crafting, cooking & baking, Star Wars, digital scrapbooking, D&D, Minecraft, Hello Kitty, horror, metalcore, royalty, tattoos & piercings, bright colors, and so much more!
