' A luscious, sumptuously woven and totally addictive fantasy. ' Amie Kaufman, New York Times' bestselling author of These Broken Stars, Illuminae and Aurora Rising Magic may be illegal in Simta, but you can find it if you know which whispers to heed. None as tantalising as the ones about the Nightbirds, Simta' s best kept secret. These privileged girls have the ability to gift their magic to others with a kiss - something the church would have them killed for. But protected by the Great Houses, their identities safe behind masks, the Nightbirds are well-guarded treasures. Matilde, sa, and Sayer spend their nights bestowing their unique brands of magic to well-paying clients. But this Season' s Nightbirds find themselves at the heart of a political scheme that threatens their secrets and their safety. When they discover that their magic is far more than they were ever told, they see the carefully crafted Nightbird system for what it is: a gilded cage. Now they must make a choice - to remain kept birds or take control, remaking the city that dared to clip their wings. Filled with sumptuous, cinematic writing and dazzling details, Nightbirds is a fiercely feminist fantasy debut where the most potent magic lies not in a kiss, but in the truth. ' An enchanting mix of illicit magic, danger, intrigue, found family and friendship. A read-all-night page-turner!' VANESSA LEN, New York Times bestselling author of Only a Monster
Kate J. Armstrong has always had a fondness for adventure. After graduating college, she left her home state of Virginia and has never really looked back. She' s explored many places and vocations, working as a high school English teacher and a nonfiction writer and editor for publishers such as National Geographic. In 2018, she started The Exploress, a women' s history podcast with a cult following and over half a million downloads. She is also the co-host of Pub Dates, a podcast that takes readers backstage to join her on the journey to publication for her book, Nightbirds. When she' s not writing or recording, you will find Kate hiking mountains, trying out cocktails, finding excuses to dress up in historical attire, or reading way past her bedtime. She lives in Melbourne, Australia, with her husband and their noble greyhound, Galahad.
