THE DEBT OF FAILURE IS PAID IN BLOOD-OR MADNESS. War has shattered Alira Verbrandt. Cornered in Astera, the last stronghold guarding the River Zybril, she clings to what remains of her kingdom-and herself. As the ruthless Illyrian Expeditionary Army closes in, Alira's only hope lies in a man haunted by visions of a future not yet written. Desperate for answers, she turns westward, forging an uneasy alliance with a daring sea captain whose fire masks secrets as dangerous as the empire they face. Their journey leads through cursed waters, up into the storm-choked peaks of Idel, and into a labyrinth buried deep beneath the world. What waits there will test everything Alira believes. The return of their creator draws near, bringing with it the threat of final judgment. To stop what's coming, Alira must awaken the final Fates-those hidden even from themselves. But time is slipping away, and the price of failure is no longer just death. I made her a promise. And by my blood, I will keep it. The Last Cry of Innocence is the gripping second installment in N.A. Betts' Fates of Aten series-an epic fantasy of war, prophecy, and sacrifice. Perfect for fans of the brutal emotional arcs of R.F. Kuang's The Poppy War and the dangerous camaraderie of Scott Lynch's The Lies of Locke Lamora.
