The Serpent and the Wings of Night
Discover the stunning first book in the bestselling romantasy series Crowns of Nyaxia
By Carissa Broadbent
Harry Hartog's review
I was immediately swept up in this book from the first page. Broadbent has this intrinsically stunning writing that I can’t begin to explain. There is a magnetic pull to each sentence that made me realise I was about to be dangerously obsessed with this world... Oraya is a badass human FMC who is surrounded by vampires who live to kill her kind. The cutthroat hunger-games-esque trials, intricate politics, heart-wrenching romance, alongside masterful plot and character construction has secured Broadbent as a new favourite author. I mean it has vampires, enemies-to-lovers, relentlessly brutal games, betrayal. and enchanting magic. Bloody, angry, stabby and spicy. - What more could you want? - Amity, Harry Hartog Narellan
Description
The Hunger Games meets vampires in the first book of the New York Times bestselling Crowns of Nyaxia series by Carissa Broadbent, a heart-wrenching, epic fantasy romance of dark magic and bloodthirsty intrigue.
Human or vampire, the rules of survival are the same: never trust, never yield, and always - always - guard your heart.
The adopted human daughter of the Nightborn vampire king, Oraya carved her place in a world designed to kill her. Her only chance to become something more than prey is entering the Kejari: a legendary tournament held by the goddess of death herself.
But winning won't be easy, pitting Oraya against the most vicious warriors from all three vampire houses. To survive, she will be forced to make an alliance with a mysterious rival.
Everything about Raihn is dangerous. He is a ruthless vampire, an efficient killer, an enemy to her father's crown - and her greatest competition. Yet, what terrifies Oraya most of all is that she finds herself oddly drawn to him.
But there's no room for compassion in the Kejari - and nothing more deadly than love . . .
The Serpent and the Wings of Night is the first book in the Crowns of Nyaxia series, the New York Times bestselling TikTok sensation by Carissa Broadbent. It is followed by The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King.
