King of Ravens: Upon a Broken Throne, Book 1

by Kyo Sija Clare Sager

4.2

Rhiannon is a woman living on borrowed time, suffering from a mysterious, fading health that keeps her tethered to the safety of her family’s secluded seaside home. Her fragile world shatters when Drystan, the cold and formidable King of the Dead, forcibly invades her sanctuary. To protect her family from certain death, Rhiannon is coerced into a harrowing bargain: she must journey to the underworld as his bride. Thrust into a realm of withered gods, treacherous courtiers, and volatile ancient magic, Rhiannon refuses to be a passive pawn. Her defiance sparks a tense enemies-to-lovers dynamic as she repeatedly attempts to escape his grasp. In a final, desperate gamble, Drystan offers her a path to freedom—she must navigate and survive his deadly, shifting labyrinth. If she succeeds, she wins her liberty; if she fails, she belongs to him forever. As Rhiannon navigates this dangerous court, she finds herself torn between the life she left behind and a haunting, dark attraction to the man who stole it from her. In a world where promises are literal weapons, she must decide if she is fighting to return home or claiming a throne she never sought.

the fear is worse than the monster

Image 97: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars the fear is worse than the monster “I could fall into that oblivion. Get lost in it, telling myself it’s just for a moment, when really it’s eternity. I kind of want to fall.” I can’t even begin to tell you guys how much I absolutely loved this book 😫 The slow burn, Drystan?! How could anyone not fall in love. He’s your centuries old grumpy moody king of death that is more than meets the eye, and getting glimpses of a side of him that no one brings out but Rhiannon was everything. Rhiannon found her place in a world that was no place meant for a human. Where words are binding, and can cut sharper than glass. Surviving, thriving, moving forward despite her own physical battles. Tackling trials and the labyrinth, navigating court politics, and slowly falling in love. She earns the love and respect of some of my favorite side characters, showing them it’s a beautiful thing, to be vulnerable, to be a little human sometimes. The pacing was beautiful, I wanted to cry at multiple points in the story, the plot is perfection, and my heart sunk to my ass because wtf just happened lol. The way Clare diabolically gives you this false sense of contentment after everything, just for it to shatter?! 😫 I NEED BOOK TWO LIKE AIR.

See all formats and editions He'll do anything to keep her. She'd do anything to escape. Rhiannon is dying—of what, she doesn't know. Kept protected by her family in their remote seaside cottage, she spends her days searching for a cure. Her world is torn apart, however, when a fae King of the Dead invades her home. Cold and cruel, Drystan offers her a choice: descend to the underworld as his bride or watch her family die. Trapped in a twisted bargain, Rhiannon is thrust into a world of withered gods, scheming courtiers, and ancient magic, but she refuses to be a pawn in a game she never agreed to play. She attempts over and over to run away, until Drystan offers her a new bargain: escape his deadly labyrinth, and he will set her free. Fail, and become his bride. But in a court where every promise has teeth, Annon must make an impossible choice: return to the home she's always loved or claim her place in a world where she might finally belong.
