Leigh Bardugo's Six of Crows meets Kristin Cashore's Graceling, with a dash of Winter is Coming, in this showstopping debut YA fantasy--and recipient of FOUR starred reviews--Katy Rose Pool's There Will Come a Darkness! A Morris Award Finalist for best debut young adult novel ! A Kirkus Best Book of the Year! A Tor.com Best YA SFF/Horror Book of the Year! "A can't miss debut from an exciting new talent." -Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of Slayer The Age of Darkness approaches. Five lives stand in its way. Who will stop it . . . or unleash it? For generations, the Seven Prophets guided humanity. Using their visions of the future, they ended wars and united nations-until the day, one hundred years ago, when the Prophets disappeared. All they left behind was one final, secret prophecy, foretelling an Age of Darkness and the birth of a new Prophet who could be the world's salvation . . . or the cause of its destruction. With chaos on the horizon, five souls are set on a collision course: A prince exiled from his kingdom. A ruthless killer known as the Pale Hand. A once-faithful leader torn between his duty and his heart. A reckless gambler with the power to find anything or anyone. And a dying girl on the verge of giving up. One of them-or all of them-could break the world. Will they be savior or destroyer? Praise for There Will Come a Darkness "Even in a world filled with graces and prophets, the real magic of There Will Come a Darkness is in how Pool has crafted her heroes-messy, flawed, and so beguilingly human. I dare you not to fall madly in love with all of them." -Laura Sebastian, New York Times bestselling author of Ash Princess
