After seventeen years of grueling training in the Assassins’ Guild, a life of killing is all Mercy has ever known. She’s the only elf the tutors have ever taught, and the human apprentices refuse to let her forget it. Orphan. Knife-ear. Pixie. But she’ll risk death to prove them all wrong. Her mission? Kill the prince. The mad king’s court is the most dangerous place in the kingdom for an elf on her own. Decades after the murder of the king’s elven mistress, whispers of revolt plague the court; a king mad with grief rules with an iron fist; and the heir to the throne guards a secret that could bring about the end of his family’s rule forever. If Mercy can find a way to assassinate the prince before her true identity is discovered, she’ll earn her place as the greatest Assassin the Guild has ever trained. If not, it’ll be more than her pride on the chopping block. Merciless is the first book of an epic fantasy series full of cutthroat court intrigue, morally gray characters, unforgettable plot twists, and slow-burn romance—perfect for fans of Throne of Glass and The Cruel Prince. #paperback#paperback
