OVER A MILLION COPIES SOLD! THE INSTANT NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING PHENOMENON.
‘Nothing short of epic’ Rosie Talbot, bestselling author of Sixteen Souls
‘A thrilling fantasy with the most delicious slow-burn romance’ M.A. Kuzniar, bestselling author of Midnight in Everwood
‘[A] titillating debut’ Publishers Weekly
Fourth Wing meets The Hunger Games in this sizzling fantasy romance not to be missed.
Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya . . . The exceptional. The Elites. The Elites have possessed powers for decades, gifted to them by the Plague, while those born Ordinary are just that, banished from the kingdom and shunned from society.
No one knows this better than Paedyn Gray, an Ordinary posing as an Elite. When she unsuspectingly saves one of Ilya’s princes, Kai Azer, she’s thrown into the Purging Trials, a brutal competition to showcase her ‘Elite’ powers.
If the Trials and the opponents don’t kill her, the prince she’s fighting feelings for will if he discovers what Paedyn really is . . . completely Ordinary.
Be swept away by the first in the smash hit, dagger-to-the-throat romantasy trilogy that's taken the world by storm.
Also Available: Reckless and Powerful

Great story
It reminds me a bit of fourth wing in the way the main character is different and seemingly weaker than the other characters, but has strength of the mind, which overpowers everything. I am running to the next one…
Great writing and great narrating

Pleasant to read
It's a captivating story that starts off in a way reminiscent of SJM's "Throne of Glass." You have competition at its core, featuring one girl and two brothers—one a fierce fighter and the other the heir to the throne. It's an engaging read with a fast-paced plot; there are no dull moments and plenty of exciting events that keep you hooked throughout.

Fantastic!
Absolutely loved Powerless. Very similar to The Hunger Games, but much better! Didn’t see the twist coming at the end.

The character emotion
I loved the character displayed by the words in the book and by the emotion in the voices of the readers. A particularly amazing book.

Amazing
I absolutely loved this book and can’t wait for the next one.
Only comment on it is I feel like it could have been even longer, some chapters feel a little rushed!
But that is just because I loved the way the book was written, the plot, the tension and how insanely awesome Paedyn is!
Love it
