A parent might reach for this book when their teen is navigating complex loyalties, whether between friends, family, or their own evolving beliefs. It's for the young adult feeling caught in the middle and needing a story about finding their own power and voice. A sequel to 'The Wrath & the Dawn', this epic fantasy follows Shahrzad as she is torn between her cursed husband, the Caliph, and her family, who have allied with his enemies. She must harness her own latent magic to break the curse, stop an impending war, and unite the people she loves. This story beautifully explores themes of love, family duty, resilience, and self-discovery. Best suited for older teens, it offers an empowering model of a young woman who refuses to be a pawn and instead forges her own destiny.
