The Prisoner's Throne

by Holly Black · 2024

When Prince Oak is cast into the frozen north as a prisoner of a ruthless new queen, his world of intrigue and betrayal in Elfhame spirals into a deadly game of survival. Bound to the queen’s will, Oak must wield his charm and cunning to navigate a court where High King Cardan and High Queen Jude will stop at nothing to reclaim their stolen heir. As a looming war threatens to engulf the realm, Oak faces an impossible choice: risk everything to win back the girl he loves, or sacrifice his heart to protect Elfhame—even if it means condemning the one he holds dearest. In this blood‑soaked finale of the Stolen Heir duology, loyalties are tested, secrets unravel, and the fate of an entire kingdom hangs on a single, desperate decision.
