The sequel to Victoria Schwab’s #1 New York Times–bestselling This Savage Song. August Flynn and Kate Harker lead the battle between humans and monsters in a thrilling urban fantasy that will appeal to fans of Holly Black and Laini Taylor.

Nearly six months after August and Kate were first thrown together in a plot to start a war, Kate is hunting monsters in Prosperity while August fights to keep V-City from collapsing into chaos. But when a new kind of monster appears — one who feeds on chaos and brings out its victim’s inner demons — it lures Kate home, where she finds more than she bargained for. She’ll face a Malchai she thought she killed, a boy she thought she knew, and a monster all her own. The engrossing conclusion to the dark urban fantasy begun in This Savage Song, which Booklist, in a starred review, describes as “linger[ing] long after its disquieting finale.” A gorgeously written new novel from New York Times–bestselling author Victoria Schwab, who is quickly taking her place with fantasy authors such as Maggie Stiefvater and Patrick Ness.
