The thrilling finale to the #1 Sunday Times bestselling Nocturna trilogy!
A sweeping and epic Dominican-inspired fantasy!

A WORLD UNBALANCED. A VILLAIN RETURNED. A DESTINY REVEALED.

In the aftermath of Sombra's return, the balance between light and dark magic has been destroyed and chaos has broken out in Castallan and around the world. Sombra's shadows have taken over to create monstrous versions of everyone Finn and Alfie love, and with war between Castallan and Englass looming, the prince and the thief must band together one last time - to save their entire world.

To stop the magical imbalance, they must find the stone relics of Sombra's body before the god can unite the pieces and regain his full strength once more.

But the laws of magic no longer apply, and with their own magic - and even the laws of time itself - drastically changing at every turn, Finn and Alfie are left on their own to stop Sombra and fulfill their prophecy before it is too late and the darkness reigns.

Will they restore balance to their world or will its light be gone forever?

Praise for Nocturna

'A searing, magical Latinx-inspired fantasy' - Julie C. Dao, author of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns
'Fantasy fans will welcome these flawed and multi-layered characters into their hearts.' Cinda Williams Chima, author of the bestselling Seven Realms series
'If you want to get swept up in a story, pick this one.' New York Times bestselling author Margaret Rogerson

Industry Reviews

An exhilarating adventure, bursting with lively, inventive magic and characters who charmed me the instant they appeared on the page. If you want to get swept up in a story, pick this one - NYT bestselling author Margaret Rogerson

This fantasy set in a Latinx kingdom explores the lasting effects of childhood trauma, the destructive potential of grief, and the redemptive power of love . . . the stakes are high, Finn and Alfie's reluctant attraction rings true, and a gratifying conclusion paves the way for book two - Publishers Weekly

Perfect for fans of Sabaa Tahir's An Ember in the Ashes or VE Schwab's A Darker Shade of Magic, Nocturna similarly delivers a richly-imagined world steeped in magic and adventure and it deserves to be embraced by fans of YA fantasy the world over - CultureFly

Utterly amazing . . . The world Maya created is unique and rich, and her vivid take on magic absolutely blew me away. It is so individual and beautiful, a step above the magic we see in so many YA books. Maya's lyrical writing and world-building were reminiscent of Laini Taylor - Midnight Book Girl
