A necromancer’s final reckoning amid court power and civil war

Closing the Raven’s Trade duology, The Antlered King brings Hellevir’s bargains with Death into sharper conflict with loyalty, love, and political survival. Her power to raise the dead remains inseparable from its cost, while Princess Sullivain’s increasingly ruthless pursuit of the throne pushes their bond into dangerous territory. With civil war approaching and Hellevir cast to the country’s margins, the novel centers on the consequences of resurrection, the value assigned to a life, and the burden of choosing whom to save. The story continues the series’ combination of necromancy, contested succession, and a romance bound by both devotion and sacrifice.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers continuing the Raven’s Trade duology after The Gilded Crown
  • Fans of dark fantasy shaped by necromancy, Death bargains, and court intrigue

In this stunning conclusion to the Raven's Trade epic fantasy duology that began with The Gilded Crown, Hellevir's bargains with Death to save the ones she loves--including the princess she risked everything to bring back to life--may just lead to the ultimate sacrifice.

Hellevir's gift to raise the dead once thrust her into the center of a court filled with backstabbing and treason, where she became duty bound to protect Princess Sullivain, the sole heir to the kingdom's throne and target of many rivals eager for the crown. But the more Hellevir risked to keep Sullivain alive, and the more deeply she fell in love with the princess, the greater the cost of their necromancer romance became--for Hellevir's power can only be granted by the strange figure who rules the afterlife, and there is always a price to pay.

Now Hellevir may have risked too much, and Sullivain has become obsessed with consolidating power through ruthless political intrigue to vanquish her foes once and for all--by whatever means necessary. Cast out to the fringes of a country on the verge of civil war, Hellevir is torn between protecting her heart or giving what little she has left to finish what she started. Yet, her connection with Sullivain runs deeper than the mortal world, and saving her friends and family might mean risking the woman she is still bound to by soul and blood.

To stop a war, Hellevir must unravel the last of Death's riddles and decide, once and for all, who deserves to live, what a life is worth, and whether she can pay the price. This explosive finale to the Raven's Trade duology is sure to satisfy fans of dark fantasy and queer romance.
