A stolen crown. A handsome prince. A giant disaster.
Elena has always been taught that those born in The Pit die in The Pit—the cramped, filthy shantytown where the poor are forced to live out their lives as trash. But when she steals the Anglian crown, everything changes...
Thrust into the bloodiest race in all the realms, Elena is forced to compete with a man she hates while she develops a growing passion for another. Along the way she must battle deadly creatures and demons, all the while struggling to understand her special skills and her mysterious healing powers that she must keep secret. But when Elena discovers the truth behind the race, can she stop the ancient, wicked evil that threatens all living things before it's too late?
