English-language deluxe hardback romantasy | Ruinous Fate Saga Book 1
This Wretched Alchemy by Tina Mars is a dark, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romantasy with alchemy, god-shards, power spells, betrayal, and intense romantic tension.
The story unfolds in a divided kingdom where warring noble Houses and a tyrannical ruler hold sway. God-shards are the source of ultimate power here. After Revel’s brother is murdered during the hunt for one such shard, she is forced to take part in the Call: a deadly contest in which heirs fight for the throne.
Revel’s mission is dangerous and clear: win the game, save her family, and murder the infamous alchemist the Warbringer. But nothing is what it seems, and in a world where love, loyalty, and power collide, trust turns out to be the most dangerous weapon.
