Description
Will divinity be their demise?
Returning to the dark and decadent world of her instant New York Times bestseller, The Gilded Wolves, Roshani Chokshi dazzles us with the trilogy's final, riveting tale as full of danger as ever in The Bronzed Beasts.
After Severin's seeming betrayal, the crew is fractured. Armed with only a handful of hints, Enrique, Laila, Hypnos and Zofia must find their way through the snarled, haunted waterways of Venice, Italy, to locate Severin.
Meanwhile, Severin must balance the deranged whims of the Patriarch of the Fallen House and discover the location of a temple beneath a plague island where the Divine Lyre can be played, and all that he desires will come to pass.
With only ten days until Laila expires, the crew will face plague pits, deadly masquerades, unearthly songs, and the shining steps of a temple whose powers may offer divinity itself . . . but the price of godhood could cost them everything they hold dear.
