Product description
Lightlark by Alex Aster – A YA Fantasy Thriller with Deadly Games & Twisted Love
Blurb Recap:
Every 100 years, the cursed island of Lightlark appears for just 100 days, hosting the Centennial—a deadly competition where the rulers of six realms fight to break their curses. The catch? One ruler must die to save the rest.
Isla Crown, the young ruler of the Wildling realm, must lie, cheat, and betray to survive. But as alliances form and secrets unravel, love complicates everything.
This paperback edition includes a sneak peek of Book 2!
Why You Should Read It:
Hunger Games Meets Fantasy – A high-stakes competition where only one can win… by killing.
Six Unique Realms, Six Deadly Curses – Each ruler has a dark secret and a brutal curse to break.
Morally Gray Heroine – Isla must deceive and manipulate to survive.
Forbidden Romance – Love is a weakness in a game where trust = death.
Plot Twists & Betrayals – No one is who they seem.
Tropes & Vibes:
•Deadly Tournament (Like The Hunger Games but with magic)
•Enemies-to-Lovers (With lethal stakes)
•"Who Can You Trust?" Mystery (Lies upon lies)
•Cursed Kingdoms (Each realm has a dark fate)
•Morally Ambiguous Characters (No clear heroes/villains)
Perfect for fans of:
•The Hunger Games (Suzanne Collins)
•Red Queen (Victoria Aveyard)
•A Curse So Dark and Lonely (Brigid Kemmerer)
•Three Dark Crowns (Kendare Blake)
️ Heads Up:
•Some readers found the romance divisive (insta-love vibes).
•The worldbuilding is fast-paced—expect to be thrown in quickly.
•Major twists in the second half!
If you love high-stakes fantasy with ruthless games and a dash of romance, this is your next obsession!
