In Magnus, a city cloaked in eternal night, the Veil binds the world together-its energy worshipped, its power hoarded by ruling vampire houses. To feed upon blood is to consume divinity. To defy the Veil is to risk annihilation.
Asteria Veil was never meant to survive. Branded the daughter of heretic sorcerers, she and her twin brother Romulus became pariahs the night their family was burned for wielding the forbidden power of the Void. Yet Asteria refuses to let House Veil die. She fights, she manipulates, she seduces-determined to reclaim her family’s place, even if it means playing the dangerous game of blood and prophecy.
But the prophecy does not belong to her.
It belongs to the Messiah of Ash and Ruin-a figure destined to break the Veil, to either destroy Magnus or reshape it in fire and blood. And when Asteria begins to manifest the powers foretold in ancient scripture, the noble houses take notice. House Ember crowns her a savior, the people whisper of a queen, and Dorian Nyx-the only man she cannot have-watches her slip further into a role that was never meant to be hers.
Yet the prophecy is a noose, tightening with every move she makes.
Romulus hears the whispers of the Void, the city fractures under the weight of old feuds, and Asteria is forced to ask the one question she never dared before-what if Magnus is not meant to be saved?
As war brews and the Veil weakens, Asteria must choose: become the tyrant the prophecy demands, or tear fate apart and risk unraveling the world itself.
The Veil is cracking. The Void is waiting. And the Messiah is ready to rise.
Perfect for fans of gothic fantasy, political intrigue, and slow-burn, tragic romance, Messiah of Ash and Ruin is a dark tale of power, prophecy, and the cost of defying fate.
