Seek the Traitor's Son
An epic, romantic dystopian fantasy begins in Seek the Traitor's Son, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth
Elegy Ahn did not ask for destiny to find her.
She is happy with her life as a soldier, defending her small country from the Talusar, a powerful nation who worships a deadly Fever. A fever that blesses half of its victims with mysterious gifts.
But then she’s summoned to hear a prophecy–her, and the most ruthless of Talusar generals, Rava Vidar. Brought face to face, they learn that one of them will lead their people to victory over the other…but they don’t know which. And at the center of both of their fates: a man. A man that, Elegy is told, she will fall in love with.
In just one day, Elegy’s old life–her job, her purpose, and her future–is over. She and Rava are destined to collide, with the fate of their nations hanging in the balance. And when they do, only one will be left standing.
Elegy intends to make sure it’s her.
Veronica Roth
Veronica Roth, the mind behind the Divergent series, has carved out her place as one of the leading voices in young adult dystopian fiction. Born in 1988 in Chicago, Illinois, Roth’s early life was filled with a love for storytelling, which she nurtured through writing short stories, novels, and more. Her path to success wasn’t instantaneous; it was a journey of honing her craft and embracing her unique voice.
Roth’s breakout moment came in 2011 with the publication of Divergent, the first book in a trilogy set in a future society divided into factions based on virtues. This high-stakes world, with its exploration of identity, fear, and rebellion, resonated deeply with readers, launching Roth into the spotlight. But Divergent wasn’t just a story about a girl caught in a conflict, it was a reflection of the complexities of choice and control, and how the decisions we make shape not just ourselves, but the world around us.
