Realm Breaker

"There are a wide variety of action scenes, daring escapes, and betrayals...exquisite descriptions and clashing motivations result in a nuanced, sprawling realm. An epic series opener of old-school high fantasy catering to modern audiences." - Kirkus Reviews

"Like Aveyard's hit Red Queen books, this series starter is a hefty tome with well-mapped details of lands, monsters, and people. Rotating narrators keep the story fresh and leave readers wanting more." - Booklist

"The entire time I was reading Realm Breaker, I wanted one thing: for the book to never end. It is classic yet groundbreaking, romantic yet edgy, a rollicking adventure that carries you along at a relentless pace. A true fantasy masterpiece." - Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the An Ember in the Ashes series

"Set in a sprawling world of warring empires and hair-raising magic that any reader would want to get lost in, Realm Breaker is a fantasy fan's dream, injected with Aveyard's trademark action, heart, and razor-sharp characters." - Roseanne A. Brown, New York Times bestselling author of A Song of Wraiths and Ruin

"Realm Breaker is the kind of book you take with you to your favorite reading chair. The world is rich and built with deep care; the characters are complex and flawed; the story is filled with the kind of sweeping scale that fantasy does best. This is a new classic." - Marie Lu, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Skyhunter

"An enthralling adventure, a richly imagined world, and the most impossible odds combine to make Realm Breaker an addictive, tightly-paced gem of a book. Readers will delight in Aveyard's bewitching new beginning, all at once epic in scope and intimate in detail. It's the adventure I was desperate to go on as a teenager and the kind of story I eagerly devour as an adult." - Emma Theriault, author of Rebel Rose
