Seasparrow

US cover, Dutton

Coming in November 2022, Seasparrow, the fifth novel in the bestselling Graceling Realm series, is told from the point of view of Hava, Queen Bitterblue’s spy.

Hava has the Grace of changing what you think you see when you look at her. In other words, hiding; hiding is an integral part not just of Hava’s life but of her personality.

In Seasparrow, Hava sails across the sea toward Monsea with the queen, the royal entourage, and the world’s only copies of the formulas for the zilfium weapon she saved at the end of Winterkeep. During the crossing, Hava makes an unexpected discovery about one of the ship’s crew, but before she can unravel that mystery, storms drive their ship off course, wrecking them in the ice far north of the Royal Continent. The survivors must endure a harrowing trek across an unforgiving landscape to make it back to Monsea. And while Queen Bitterblue grapples with how to carry the responsibility of a weapon that will change the world, Hava has a few more mysteries to solve — and a decision to make about who she wants to be in the new world Bitterblue will build.
