  • Daughter of Ruin (The Academy of Kindness, Book 2) March 25, 2027

    'I never met a Mark Lawrence book that I didn't love' ROBIN HOBB 'An excellent writer' GEORGE R.R. MARTIN The viciously dark and epic sequel to Sunday Times bestseller, Daughter of Crows. Mollandra Plight was born at the centre of an endless cycle of crime and punishment, guilt and revenge. She has lived as victim and victimiser, too strong to break, not strong enough to escape. The Academy of Kindness was never the disease – it was a symptom. The sickness runs through individuals, generations, and nations. Mollandra has never sought a cure, such is the work of gods, not the dead.

    Set a thief to catch a thief. Set a monster to punish monsters. The Academy of Kindness exists to create agents of retribution, cast in the image of the Furies—known as the kindly ones—against whom even the gods hesitate to stand. Each year a hundred girls are sold to the Academy. Ten years later only three will emerge. The Academy’s halls run with blood. The few that survive its decade-long nightmare have been forged on the sands of the Wound Garden. They have learned ancient secrets amid the necrotic fumes of the Bone Garden.
