In the captivating sequel to The Darkening, Vesper and Dalca face their fiercest battle yet to save their besieged city from the Great King and his ominous army.

'Will ensnare you from the first page' Chloe Gong on The Darkening

Vesper Vale sacrificed everything to save her city. But when she awakens after three years as a vessel of The Great Queen, she finds her home beset by sinister forces - and herself revered as a goddess.

The Great King and his army of lightstruck - once regular citizens who are now controlled by an ominous light - have besieged the city. And as she fights to rescue them, a chasm is growing between her and Dalca, the prince she swore never to love.

To save her city again, Vesper will have to face the power most outside her control - the goddess within.

Reviews for The Lightstruck: The action-packed, gripping sequel to The Darkening

** PRAISE FOR SUNYA MARA ** An enchanting and wildly clever debut . . . a true masterclass in young adult fantasy * Ayana Gray, New York Times bestselling author of Beasts of Prey * A thrilling, fast-paced adventure by an exciting new voice * Adalyn Grace, New York Times bestselling author of All the Stars and Teeth * The Lightstruck is the kind of sequel I'd hoped it would be: exciting, surprising, at times heart-breaking and always engaging. It's a novel that never loses its essential sense of hope, even when the situations and characters themselves feel utterly hopeless. It also credits readers with the intelligence they're owed * Culturefly *
