What Kingdom of the Wicked is like to read
A propulsive Sicilian-flavored descent into a Hell court of seductive demon princes, where a grieving witch's revenge quest tangles with an increasingly irresistible enemy-ally.

Best for: readers who want dark romantasy with an enemies-to-lovers slow burn and a murder-mystery spine.
