Javan Najafai, the crown prince of Akram, has spent the last ten years at school, far away from his kingdom. He’s been eagerly awaiting his return home to his ailing father, but his journey there goes dangerously wrong. A mysterious imposter has taken his place—and no one will believe Javan is the true prince.
After barely escaping the imposter’s hitmen, Javan is thrown in the most dangerous prison in his kingdom—Maqbara. The only way to gain an audience with the king and reveal the truth is to fight his way out in the prison’s yearly tournament, which pits inmates against a coterie of the deadliest creatures in the world.
The one person who can help him is Sajda, a strong and secretive girl who has been enslaved by Maqbara’s warden since she was a child. Working with Sajda might be the only way Javan can escape alive—but she’s hiding something.
Together, Javan and Sajda will have to outwit the dangerous warden, outfight the hundreds of deadly creatures, and outlast the murderous prisoners intent on killing Javan before he can win—in order to fight for their freedom, and take down the imposter once and for all.
I love C. J. too. This looks like another good one.
ReplyDeleteHey Carina, i always wanted to ask you, are you satisfied with the condition of your books from book depo? it seems like mine always arriving a bit dent and stuff (hardcovers) and wondered if yours too and if it bothers you?
ReplyDeleteThanks :p
Hi Tanya :D Ack, I used to get a lot of damaged books from them years back, and always got refunds or a new book, as they are pretty awesome with that, if you contact them about it :) But I used to do this too often.. and it ended up with them telling me they would stop sending to my address, that it might be a problem with my address, that that was the reason for the damage :p so didn't complain too much after that :)
DeleteBut lately most of my books have been looking pretty great. Maybe some small damages, but nothing big at all, and whenever it is something big, I do email to ask for a new copy :) But yeah, it's been some time since I last got a real damaged one from them; so I'm still happy buying from there :)
Hope you enjoy the new book, Carina! :)
