OVER A MILLION COPIES SOLD! THE INSTANT NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING PHENOMENON.
‘Nothing short of epic’ Rosie Talbot, bestselling author of Sixteen Souls
‘A thrilling fantasy with the most delicious slow-burn romance’ M.A. Kuzniar, bestselling author of Midnight in Everwood
‘[A] titillating debut’ Publishers Weekly
Fourth Wing meets The Hunger Games in this sizzling fantasy romance not to be missed.
Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya . . . The exceptional. The Elites. The Elites have possessed powers for decades, gifted to them by the Plague, while those born Ordinary are just that, banished from the kingdom and shunned from society.
No one knows this better than Paedyn Gray, an Ordinary posing as an Elite. When she unsuspectingly saves one of Ilya’s princes, Kai Azer, she’s thrown into the Purging Trials, a brutal competition to showcase her ‘Elite’ powers.
If the Trials and the opponents don’t kill her, the prince she’s fighting feelings for will if he discovers what Paedyn really is . . . completely Ordinary.
Be swept away by the first in the smash hit, dagger-to-the-throat romantasy trilogy that's taken the world by storm.

Fantastic!
Absolutely loved Powerless. Very similar to The Hunger Games, but much better! Didn’t see the twist coming at the end.

The character emotion
I loved the character displayed by the words in the book and by the emotion in the voices of the readers. A particularly amazing book.

Amazing
I absolutely loved this book and can’t wait for the next one.
Only comment on it is I feel like it could have been even longer, some chapters feel a little rushed!
But that is just because I loved the way the book was written, the plot, the tension and how insanely awesome Paedyn is!
Love it

Oh my gosh! Powerless
Even thought is YA this book is fantastic! The banter, the angst, the longing, make you feel things you didn’t though existed. I loved through this book and hurt through it. It’s amazing and well written. The narrator’s performance was fabulous and the male voice is like a honey purr.

One of my favourite books of all time!
I’ve started my year off strong!! I buddy read Powerless with Aleira (@aleirareads) and boy did this book cause us to have some reactions! I didn’t know too much about this book going into it but I absolutely loved every element from Paedyn living in the slums, to being picked for The Trials and especially meeting Prince Kai. If I was to describe this book I’d say it’s the hunger games, meets the selection series & what I’ve read of the blurb, Red Queen.
The book follows Paedyn, a girl who is ordinary in a world full of elites. The elites possess powers which they believe, ordinary people weaken so the King decided to kill or ordinary people. Paedyn has mastered the ability to trick people into thinking she has a psychic powers. Every 5 years a selected number of elites are put into a trial of 3 challenges where they battle to win. Paedyn is selected after she saves the Princes’ life, but can she survive when she’s up against the most powerful?
Well I highly recommend reading the book to find out! This book covers some relatively heavy topics however I was in fits of laughter at moments. Whilst this book is not spicy in the slightest, the flirtatious banter between Paedyn and Kai was honestly out of this world! They had me blushing, giggling and even kicking my legs! If I could just read a whole book of them conversing, I 100% would!
Overall, for the first book of the year I am extremely happy! I absolutely loved it and dying for more! You can bet I’ve already got the next book preordered!
