The Stolen Heir

Set eight years after the Battle of the Serpent, this installment in the Elfhame series follows Suren, the exiled child queen of the Court of Teeth, who lives wild in the human world and frees mortals from unwise fae bargains. When her mother, Lady Nore, uses an ancient relic in the icy north to raise monsters of stick and snow, Suren is drawn back toward the horrors she fled. Pursued by the storm hag Bogdana, she is rescued by Prince Oak, heir to Elfhame and the boy she was once promised to marry, who asks for her help on a journey north while she struggles to trust him.
