The most wanted rebel returns in Zoraida Córdova’s gripping conclusion to the Hollow Crown duology.
For years, she was wielded as a weapon. Now it’s her time to fight back.
Reeling from betrayal at the hands of the Whispers, Renata has few options and fewer allies. Reluctantly, she agrees to join forces with Prince Castian, her most infuriating and intriguing enemy. Their goals: find the fabled Knife of Memory, kill the ruthless King Fernando, and bring peace to the nation.
Together, Renata and Castian have a chance to save everything, if only they can set aside their complex and intense feelings for each other. Renata’s heart may still beat for Dez, but as the danger of their quest increases, so does her attraction to Castian.
With the king’s forces on their heels at every turn, there is little room for mistakes. A dark, twisted history lies behind the elusive weapon, and the fate of the kingdom is held in the balance. Still, the greatest danger is within Renata – the Gray, her fortress of stolen memories, has begun to crumble, threatening her grip on reality. She’ll have to control her magics, her mind, and her heart to unlock her power and protect the Moria people once and for all.
In this thrilling conclusion to the Hollow Crown duology, Zoraida Córdova weaves an epic finale brimming with adventure, romance, and justice.

An epic and spellbinding fantasy, Incendiary is a darkly rich tapestry of twisted magic, deadly consequences, and riveting stakes
Gorgeous world building, searing suspense, and a huge cast of fascinating, complex characters . . . I loved every minute of it
A compelling world filled with beautiful, brutal magic and characters that feel real enough to touch -weighed down by memory and fueled by love and vengeance.
A brilliant novel full of mem and magic, love and vengeance.
The Spanish Inquisition with much-needed magic, a lush world, and heart-stopping intrigue . . . I couldn't get enough of this sweeping journey of love and loyalty!
The thrills and reversals of fortune come thick and fast
A story that's refreshingly different in setting
Honestly, there's nothing that I didn't like about this story. It's beautifully written, and each character has their own memorable personality . . . Add it to your TBR, because I'm telling you, you're not going to want to miss it
An intense and vivid story of revolution, violence, love, and the desperate struggle to make the world better one impossible choice at a time
With gorgeous writing, loads of action, and a surprising but satisfying ending, Illusionary has it all in spades. Lovers of high-fantasy series featuring fierce heroines, like those by Sarah J. Maas, Kristin Cashore, or Tomi Adeyemi, will not want to miss it
