"Utterly addictive and smolderingly sexy" - DANIELLE L. JENSEN, New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in BloodFrom USA Today bestselling author and BookTok favourite Olivia Wildenstein comes a gorgeous Deluxe Edition of the first book in the lush and epic Kingdom of Crows romantasy series, featuring stained edges, a brand-new bonus scene and never-before-seen artwork. ***Free the crows, Fallon, and they will make you queen.All her life, Fallon Rossi has been marked by her half-humanity. Nearly every pure-blooded faerie at court has looked down on her for her curved ears, lack of magic, and fondness for water serpents - but never Dante, the Prince of Luce. The flirtatious royal has held Fallon'sheart ever since he gave her her first kiss. But as doubts creep in of how a Fae prince and a halfling could ever have lasting happiness together, Fallon finds hope in an oracle's prophecy: she will be queen, but first, she must free the crows. Confused yet determined, Fallon embarks on the hunt that could give her everything she's wanted but couldn't have: power, respect, perhaps even acceptance, and most desirably, her prince. But unknown to Fallon, her quest will unleash more than just her destiny, and when the ancient demon awakens, he plans to have Fallon all for himself. House of Beating Wings begins a tantalising and magical journey through a richly realised high fantasy world, perfect for fans of Piper CJ, Scarlett St. Clair and Sarah J. Maas's ACOTAR books.
