A novel by

 
 
What’s worse than being a slave with forbidden death magic? Nar is about to find out.

Nar has spent her seventeen years serving nobles, using her murderous powers rarely or preferably never. Descended from the death goddess, she’s feared by nobles and will die if discovered.

Pirates, though?

Once captured and forced to defend herself, Nar finds herself on Islanda Nylar, where there are two outcomes: train to become a pirate or die.

Nar wants nothing to do with it. Pirates are worse than the pompous nobles. And Kallen, the son of the pirate king? He’s smug, obnoxious, far too attractive…and he’s also her personal trainer. Turns out, she’s the first recruit with deathly magic. Great.

If Nar can’t escape, a savage captain will choose her for his crew.

But to get out, she’ll need to trust Kallen, pass her tests, and face her own darkness.

House of Night meets Daughter of the Pirate King in Wretched Recruit, the first book of the Pirate Academy series. The second and third books will release in the fall of 2021 to complete a fantasy academy series full of danger, romance, mythology, and adventure.
