Meadow

She was reborn to power. Now she must defy it.

In a world suspended between life and death, where memories seep from skin and rebellion simmers beneath the streets, Eilish Callaghan must choose: uphold her family's oppressive rule-or risk everything to dismantle it.

Ten years after an uprising nearly toppled the Distillery, rebellion flickers anew. Under the brutal reign of the Callaghan family, fear has become a weapon to suppress dissent. Yet Eilish stands apart, determined to redeem her family's dark legacy. Braving torture, kidnap, and the threat of execution, she pursues a perilous path toward truth.

Her journey leads her deep beneath London's secret tunnels, around swirling ocean maelstroms, into the whispered confidences of forgotten prisoners, and dangerously close to fallen angels. But hidden behind every revelation lies a truth even darker-one that connects her irrevocably to her past and threatens to shape the future itself.

Death carries you to The Meadow, but you have to carry yourself out.

Kuang's Babel, enter once more into Shaw's uniquely enthralling universe.
