Sobre este título

 A dark, heart-thumping political epic fantasy by debut author Amy Leow—full of scheming demons, morally grey heroines, talking cats, and cut-throat priests, this delicious tale of power and corruption will captivate from beginning to end.

Binsa is a “living goddess,” chosen by the gods to dispense both mercy and punishment from her place on the Scarlet Throne. But her reign hides a deadly secret. Rather than channeling the wisdom of an immortal deity, she harbors a demon.

Though, one cannot remain a living goddess forever. When her temple’s priests decide that Binsa’s time in power has come to an end, a new girl, Medha, is selected to take over her position as goddess. But Binsa refuses to be discarded into a life of uncertainty as a young woman, and she strikes a deal with her demon: She will sacrifice her people’s lives in order to magnify his power, and in return, he will help her seize control from the priests once and for all.

But how much of her humanity is she willing to trade for the sake of ambition? Deals with demons are rarely so simple. Ação e Aventura Fantasia Fantasia Sombria Épico

Resumo da Crítica

"In this delightful novel, debut author Leow carefully balances the characters’ humanity against their fears to drive this story along unexpected paths."—Booklist (starred review)

"A gripping dark fantasy inspired by Southeast Asian folk religion... this tension-filled adventure gets Leow off to a strong start."

—Publishers Weekly
"The Scarlet Throne is a darkly captivating book drenched in undiluted feminine rage. Living goddess Binsa's bartering of blood and power offers one hell of a villain origin story, and readers in search of devious political schemes, moral complexity, and lush worldbuilding need look no further." —Julie Leong, author of Teller of Small Fortunes
"Leow weaves a compelling, richly-imagined tale steeped in ambition and shimmering folklore. With lyrical prose and a fascinating anti-heroine at the helm, The Scarlet Throne is a riveting debut."—Sophia Slade, author of Nightstrider
"Amy Leow has crafted a wonderfully rich world filled with political complexities and delicious drama that will keep you at the edge of your seat. This book will make you embrace your inner villain and be completely unapologetic about it."—Amber Chen, author of Of Jade and Dragons
"A bold and beautiful story of power, politics, and religion. The world Leow weaves is vibrant, and filled with fascinating depth. Her characters are vicious and complex. The Scarlet Throne is a must-read for anyone who loves villainous women."—Maelan Holliday, author of The Stonewall Saga
