Sinossi
A ogni generazione, al sorgere della Luna di Sangue, le sette famiglie della remota città di Ilvernath scelgono ciascuna un proprio campione che combatterà in un torneo all'ultimo sangue. In palio c'è il controllo assoluto sull'alta magia, la più potente al mondo, a lungo ritenuta esaurita e ora gelosamente custodita in segreto da una delle sette famiglie maledette di Ilvernath. Finora i crudeli Lowe hanno vinto quasi tutti i tornei, e si preparano a confermare il proprio dominio. Ma quest'anno c'è qualcosa di nuovo: grazie al bestseller Una tradizione tragica, che ha svelato tutti i segreti del torneo della Luna di Sangue, i sette contendenti sono sotto i riflettori del mondo intero. Possono avere nuove informazioni, nuovi mezzi per vincere. Più di tutto, possono avere una scelta: accettare il loro destino, o riscrivere la storia. Una storia che, però, deve essere intrisa di sangue.

High magick fell from the stars, and when we found it, we did what humans always do. We decided it was ours to claim. It's been so long since I've felt the magnetic pull of YA fantasy, I wondered if I'd outgrown the genre altogether. But here is definitive proof to the contrary. All this time, I'
‘the hunger games’ with magic, you say? im sold. this is the kind of story that has something for everyone - a really unique magic system, interesting characters who have depth and amazing development, a high-stakes plot with a gruesome history, and really easy to binge-read writing/storytelling. fo Leggi tutto

"Monsters couldn't harm you if you were a monster, too." I would die for Alistair Lowe. That's it; that's the review. *Many thanks to the publisher for providing my review copy.
When the Blood Veil falls in the shrouded village of Ilvernath, six champions must fall with it. Only one will be left standing at the end of the deadly tournament. The last champion’s prize is the only high magick in the world, a coveted resource worth more to the seven champions’ families than the Leggi tutto
"Their story had never been destined for a happy ending." Well, that was super disappointing... and here I was having such a good streak with the books I was reading💀 I definitely jinxed it. [image error] All of Us Villains had so much potential. Like a hunger games retelling?? With a cast
