A CROWN FOR THE HOLLOW KING

A CROWN FOR THE HOLLOW KING

Every Hollow King for four thousand years has been the same: woven from stolen memory, built to rule and forbidden to feel. Anye was never supposed to be the one to make the next one. She's the only person in Ilyros ever chosen without a familiar, untested, untrained, and marked by a god who has never chosen anyone before.

But the Loom answers to her anyway.

Summoned to the Loomspire to weave the realm's next king, Anye is given one task: erase. Take a man, strip him down to obedience, and hand Veltharion back its crown. It's what every Tailor before her has done. It's what the Loom Council expects. It's what keeps Gravenmark's spies quiet and the old gods satisfied.

She can't do it.

What she weaves instead is something no one has seen in four thousand years, a king who remembers. Who chooses. Who might, impossibly, be capable of love .

Now Anye has to survive a council that fears what she's made, a foreign power that wants the obedient king restored, and a bond with Calereth that was never supposed to exist in the first place.

The crown is done. The consequences are just beginning.

Book one of the Hollow Crown trilogy, an epic fantasy about memory, defiance, and the man who was never meant to be whole, with a bond that's only just beginning to take root.
