About this series

A new romantasy novel written from the perspective of Oro, from #1 New York Times–bestselling author and #BookTok sensation Alex Aster

 

True love knows no bounds. 

 

The novel is narrated by Oro and offers a window into his complex identity: that of a king torn between desire for justice and passion for the woman he loves more than anything. It includes key moments from the ruler’s love story with Isla, told in his own voice.

 

Oro is certain to thrill readers and test allegiances, leaving new and longtime fans second-guessing who they’re rooting for in the breathtaking battle for Isla’s heart.

  • Lightlark

    WELCOME TO THE CENTENNIAL Every hundred years, the island of Lightlark appears for only one hundred days to host a deadly game, where the rulers of six realms fight to break their curses and win unparalleled power. Each ruler has something to hide. Each curse is uniquely wicked. To break them—and save themselves and their realms—one ruler will die. To survive, Isla Crown must LIE. CHEAT. BETRAY. Even as love complicates everything …

  • Nightbane

    You were once the bane of my existence … and now, you are the center of it. Isla Crown has secured the love of two powerful rulers and broken the curses that plagued the six realms for centuries, but few know the true origins of her powers. Now, in the wake of a crushing betrayal, Isla finds herself hungry for distraction, preferring to frequent Lightlark’s seductive haunts instead of embracing her duties as the newly crowned leader of two separate realms. Worse, her fellow rulers haven’t ceded victory quietly, and there are others in Isla’s midst who don’t believe her ascent to power was earned. As certain death races toward Lightlark and secrets from the past begin to unravel, Isla must weigh her responsibility to her people against the whims of the most dangerous traitor of all: her heart.

  • Skyshade

    Love kills kingdoms … Back in Grim’s castle on Nightshade, Isla is reeling in the wake of a brutal battle and the devastating truths it exposed. Her future—and the fate of the world—now hinge on a heart split in two. Past Isla, who fell in love with the ruler of Nightshade, fights to resist feelings she considers treasonous. The Isla of the present, who has seen the ruin her powers can cause, will do anything to save Lightlark and its king. As the line between enemy and friend is tested, Isla is more desperate than ever to understand the oracle’s final prophecy and change her heartrending fate. But a storm is coming. And with it, a long-buried evil greater than anything the realms have faced before. With the clock ticking on her destiny and the survival of two warring kingdoms hinging on her own shattered heart, Isla Crown will either save the world—or destroy it.

    I really enjoyed this book. There were many twists and turns, as well as new revelations. I loved seeing both Grimm and Oro throughout the book. I can’t wait to read what’s next.

    Mostly predictable except for a slight twist at the end that I found disconnected from the main story. So much buildup only to fall flat.

    I cannot read another one of these books. Isla is one of the most annoying FMCs. The cave scene? Gave me the ick.

    So far I really enjoyed this series. Only complaint is there are so many characters to keep track of. Half the time when something major happens to a character I had to really think about why they were so important. Ending was slightly predictable, but overall I really enjoyed most of this book.

    wow. this is my first review on this app after listening to many books which i’ve enjoyed. but this book really deserves one! slow burning romance and shocking plot twists had me so excited to get back to listening after work every day.

    i found the first book hard to connect with but nightbane put all the pieces together for me and im so glad that i gave the series another shot. i’m absolutely obsessed and am so desperate for november to come for the release of the third book. i’ve already preordered the special edition hardback. i really hope to see much more of grim and isla!!
