Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King. To win a place at the Court, she must defy him - and face the consequences.

But the new High King does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her, even as his fascination with her remains undimmed. Meanwhile, a traitor in the court is scheming against her. Jude must fight for her life and the lives of those she loves, all while battling her own complicated feelings for Cardan. Now a year and a day seems like no time at all....

When her twin sister, Taryn, shows up asking a favour, Jude jumps at the chance to return to the Faerie world, even if it means facing Cardan, whom she loves despite his betrayal.

"Talk about out of the frying pan, into the fire! I was pretty sure that my freaky stepsister and that freaky field guide of hers would ruin my life. But now it looks like they're going to ruin all of Florida, too! Okay, maybe that's not fair. Maybe all these stupid giants would be waking up anyway, but if it wasn't for her and that book, I'd be home playing video games and this would be someone else's giant problem!"

De nieuwe serie van internationale bestsellerauteur Holly Black, van wie er wereldwijd al miljoenen boeken over de toonbank gingen. Natuurlijk wil ik zijn zoals zij. Ze zijn prachtig, als zwaarden gesmeed in een hemels vuur. Cardan is nog mooier dan de rest. Hem haat ik het allermeest. Ik haat hem zo erg dat soms, als ik naar hem kijk, ik nauwelijks kan ademhalen. Toen Jude zeven was, kwam er een vreemde man langs: een man met gekke kleren, puntige oren en een donderstem. Voor Jude wist wat er gebeurde, haalde hij een zwaard tevoorschijn en vermoordde daarmee haar ouders.

Die faszinierende Rückkehr in die magische Welt von Elfenheim! Es war einmal ein Junge mit einer bösen Zunge... Bevor er Prinz und König wurde, war er ein Elfenkind mit einem Herzen aus Stein. New-York-Times-Bestsellerautorin Holly Black gibt den Blick frei auf das bewegte Leben des faszinierenden Elfenkönigs Cardan. Die Geschichten enthalten aufregende Einblicke in eine Zeit, die vor Elfenkrone spielt, ein Abenteuer, das nach Elfenthron stattfindet, und bekannte Szenen aus der Elfenkrone-Trilogie, allesamt aus Cardans Sicht erzählt.

An die Macht zu kommen ist einfacher, als an der Macht zu bleiben - das weiß keiner besser als Jude. Zwar ist sie die neue Elfenkönigin, doch König Cardan hat sie verraten und ins Exil geschickt. Um ihrer Schwester Taryn zu helfen, deren Leben in Gefahr ist, kehrt Jude nun an den Hof der Elfen zurück, entschlossen, ihre Position zurückzuerobern und Cardan nie wieder in ihr Herz zu lassen. Doch am Hof ist nichts mehr, wie es war.

Sei so stark wie der König der Elfen selbst... Jude hat nur ein Ziel - als geheime Macht hinter dem Thron ihren Ziehbruder Oak, den wahren Erben des Elfenreichs, zu beschützen. Dafür hat sie Cardan, den neuen König der Elfen, an sich gebunden und zieht im Geheimen die Fäden. Die Geschicke von Faerie zu lenken, wäre schon schwierig genug.

Ein gefährlicher Machtkampf, eine Elfenkrone und ein Mädchen... "Natürlich möchte ich wie sie sein. Sie sind unsterblich. Cardan ist der Schönste von allen. Und ich hasse ihn mehr als den Rest. Ich hasse ihn so sehr, dass ich manchmal kaum Luft bekomme, wenn ich ihn ansehe..." Jude ist sieben, als ihre Eltern ermordet werden und sie gemeinsam mit ihren Schwestern an den Hof des Elfenkönigs verschleppt wird. Zehn Jahre später hat Jude nur ein Ziel vor Augen: dazuzugehören, um jeden Preis.

In Charlie Hall's world, shadows can be altered, for entertainment and cosmetic preferences—but also to increase power and influence. You can alter someone's feelings—and memories—but manipulating shadows has a cost, with the potential to take hours or days from your life. Your shadow holds all the parts of you that you want to keep hidden—a second self, standing just to your left, walking behind you into lit rooms. And sometimes, it has a life of its own.

Before Cardan was a cruel prince or a wicked king, he was a faerie child with a heart of stone. In this sumptuously illustrated tale, Holly Black reveals a deeper look into the dramatic life of Elfhame's enigmatic high king. This tale includes delicious details of life before The Cruel Prince, an adventure beyond The Queen of Nothing, and familiar but pivotal moments from The Folk of the Air trilogy, told wholly from Cardan's perspective.

Charlie Hall has never found a lock she couldn’t pick, a book she couldn’t steal, or a bad decision she wouldn’t make. She's spent half her life working for gloamists, magicians who manipulate shadows to peer into locked rooms, strangle people in their beds, or worse. Gloamists guard their secrets greedily, creating an underground economy of grimoires. And to rob their fellow magicians, they need Charlie Hall.

After the jaw-dropping revelation that Oak is the heir to Faerie, Jude must keep her younger brother safe. To do so, she has bound the wicked King Cardan to her and made herself the power behind the throne. When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complicated feelings for Cardan to maintain control as a mortal in a Faerie world.

While Jude fought for power in the Court of Elfhame against the cruel Prince Cardan, her sister, Taryn, began to fall in love with the trickster Locke. Half-apology and half-explanation, it turns out Taryn has some secrets of her own to reveal.

An all-star line-up of children’s book authors, including Holly Black, Justine Larbalestier, Libba Bray, and Maureen Johnson, debate the question, “Which are better: zombies or unicorns?”
