An Arcane Inheritance (Deluxe Edition)

Seit Faron vor fünf Jahren mithilfe der Götter ihre Heimatinsel San Irie gerettet hat, führt sie ein Leben als bewunderte, aber endlos gelangweilte 17-Jährige. Als ihre Schwester Elara von einem Drachen des feindlichen Langley-Reiches zu seiner Reiterin berufen wird, stehen die beiden plötzlich auf verschiedenen Seiten und vor ungeahnten Herausforderungen. Faron setzt alles daran, ihre Schwester wieder zurückzuholen, und entfesselt dabei eine dunkle Macht, die alles zu zerstören droht, das sie liebt. Was ist sie bereit, für ihre Schwester zu opfern?

Whip-smart and immersive, this Jamaican-inspired fantasy follows a gods-blessed heroine who's forced to choose between saving her sister or protecting her homeland-perfect for fans of Iron Widow and The Priory of the Orange Tree. Faron Vincent can channel the power of the gods. Five years ago, she used her divine magic to liberate her island from its enemies, the dragon-riding Langley Empire. But now, at seventeen, Faron is all powered up with no wars to fight. She's a legend to her people and a nuisance to her neighbours. When she's forced to attend an international peace summit, Faron expects that she will perform tricks like a trained pet and then go home. She doesn't expect her older sister, Elara, forming an unprecedented bond with an enemy dragon-or the gods claiming the only way to break that bond is to kill her sister. As Faron's desperation to find another solution takes her down a dark path, and Elara discovers the shocking secrets at the heart of the Langley Empire, both must make difficult choices that will shape each other's lives, as well as the fate of their world.By turns hopeful and devastating, So Let Them Burn is a masterful debut with a blazing heart. I was captivated from beginning to end by Cole's sharp, clever prose and by her protagonists-two remarkable sisters with an unforgettable bond' - Chelsea Abdullah, author of The Stardust Thief

Now, she's done the unthinkable: betrayed her country. Alone, disgraced, and kidnapped, Faron is forced to help Iya grow his bloody empire. With her soul bonded to a ruthless killer, Faron has become an enemy to her people... and she fears they might be right. Elara Vincent-the new Empyrean-must undo the damage her sister has caused. San Irie has been brought back to the brink of war as Iya proclaims no nation will be safe from his brutal invasion. But how can Elara save her sister, her best friend, her country, and her world when she's already cracking under the pressure?
