She is very good at being ordinary.Then the night of the Hunt arrives in Ravenfall, and something that should not exist comes looking for her — and Lyra's carefully maintained version of normal collapses in a single hour.Taken to the Shadow Arena, classified in front of four ancient factions, and named the Bloodbound Catalyst — a designation that hasn't existed in living memory — Lyra must survive the Trials, navigate the most dangerous political landscape she's never been told about, and decide what she's willing to become.BLOODBOUND is a dark fantasy novel about identity, containment, and the terrifying beauty of becoming who you were always meant to be.
