The Stolen Heir by Holly Black
Book Overview
Return to the opulent, dangerous realm of Elfhame in The Stolen Heir, a masterful fantasy tale from #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black. Eight years after the Battle of the Serpent, Suren — the changeling queen of the Court of Teeth — lives in exile in the mortal world, haunted by her past and the torments she escaped.
When a relentless storm hag drives her back into danger, Suren is unexpectedly rescued by Prince Oak, heir to Elfhame and the very person she was once promised in marriage. Now seventeen, charming yet manipulative, Oak needs Suren’s help on a perilous quest northwards. But agreeing to join him means confronting buried emotions, old betrayals, and the horrors she thought she had left behind.
Blending political intrigue, magical legend, and star-crossed romance, The Stolen Heir invites readers into a richly imagined world where every choice carries consequence and the line between friend and foe is never clear.
