With the political intrigue and high heat of A Court of Thorns and Roses and From Blood and Ash, A Betrayal of Storms is perfect for readers who enjoy stories full of magic, romance, and adventure... but with added spice.
Half-fey Robin Vale has grown up amongst humans, but that doesn’t save him from being captured for coin by fey hunters. When he’s rescued by a fey princess, he’s taken to Wychwood, the fey realm – where everyone is focused on preparing for war against the humans who hate, hunt, and kill them for coin.
Robin doesn’t understand how he fits into the fey’s plans... until he’s revealed to be the lost heir to the Icethorn Court. Aided by the unclaimed, destructive power of the Winter Court, which had been thought destroyed with Robin’s mother’s death, the fey ready their numbers for complete domination of the human realm.
But by claiming the throne with the help of his devastatingly handsome personal guard, Erix, Robin’s very presence opposes the long-planned invasion. Along with his allies – including Althea, a stern princess hellbent on stopping the human hunters from killing her kin – Robin is thrust into a world of betrayal, murder, and lies. He must survive long enough to have the choice: listen to fate and claim his family’s power, or let it wreak havoc on a realm that turned its back on him for becoming who he was truly meant to be.
"Combining a riveting exploration of the costs of claiming one’s destiny paired with killer magic, an engrossing world, and a romance to die for, A Betrayal of Storms is seductive—and a tantalizing start to a series that will keep readers on the edge of their seats." – Laura R. Samotin, author of The Sins On Their Bones
“Ben Alderson’s A Betrayal of Storms is everything romantasy lovers will adore - a world full of magic and mystery, lush romance, a beguiling main character and a devilishly charming love interest. Readers will tear through the pages and then beg for more by the end.” – Halli Starling, author of Coup de Coeur
"I’m obsessed with Ben Alderson! A Betrayal of Storms is the perfect romantasy package, with delectable banter, swoony romance, original world-building, and plot twists that will have you wondering who to trust. Go read this immediately." – Nisha J. Tuli, International bestselling author of Trial of the Sun Queen
"A war brewing between human and fae, the sweetest romance, and the most gut-wrenching betrayals...what more could a romantasy lover ask for? Ben Alderson is a master of building deeply layered worlds. A Betrayal of Storms is rich, fast-paced, and packed with deceptions and plot twists that kept me from sleep. Ben delivers once again in the romantasy arena." – Stacey McEwan, bestselling author of The Glacian Trilogy
