Some thrones are not meant to be claimed. They are meant to be destroyed.
Cass Blackwood has spent her life hunting supernatural threats - never suspecting the most dangerous one lived in her own blood. Now, marked by the silver sigils of a forgotten bloodline and standing at the heart of the fortress her enemies built, she faces the final reckoning she's been racing toward since the beginning.
The Obsidian Throne was never a seat of power. It is a corruption engine - ancient, sentient, and patient - designed to isolate every ruler it crowns until their good intentions become tyranny. Four centuries of failed heirs have proven it cannot be reformed. The only question left is whether it can be unmade.
With the Shadow Council broken but its ghost haunting every corridor, Cass must forge an entirely new order: a Supernatural Parliament built on collective power - one the Throne was never designed to counter. Beside her are Dominic, centuries-old and finally learning to trust something beyond stone-cold duty, and Kieran, whose Fae diplomacy masks a devotion that would reshape two worlds for her sake. But their enemies have infiltrated the Parliament's foundations, and every hour of delay costs lives.
To save everyone she loves, Cass will have to pay a price she cannot take back.
The crown must burn. The only question is what rises from the ashes - and who she'll be when the smoke clears.
The Crown Must Burn is the electrifying finale of The Obsidian Throne Series - a sweeping blend of urban fantasy, slow-burn romance, and political intrigue for fans of Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, and Seanan McGuire.
