{"product_id":"the-vanished-queen","title":"The Vanished Queen","description":"A stunning blend of vivid fantasy and political drama, The Vanished Queen is the timely story of a young resistance fighter working to overthrow a totalitarian ruler's regime of terror and lies. \"[G]ripping...this is the novel the world needs now\" (Kate Heartfield, Nebula Award finalist and author of Aurora Award-winning novel Armed in Her Fashion).Long ago, Queen Mirantha vanished. King Karolje claimed she was assassinated by a neighboring ruler, but her people knew the truth: the king had Disappeared her himself. Now the queen's disappearance is hardly a memory--merely one among many horrors the king's reign has wrought. But when Anza, a young student impassioned by her father's unjust execution, finds the missing queen's diary, she is inspired by Mirantha's words--joins the resistance group to overthrow the king. Prince Esvar is the second son to an evil king. Trapped under his thumb and desperate for a way out, a chance meeting with Anza gives him the opportunity to join the resistance. Together, they might have the leverage to move against the king--but if they fail, their deaths could mean a total loss of freedom for generations to follow. In this dangerous game of court politics, one misstep could lead to a fate worse than death. Set in a world where resistance is as dangerous as it is important, The Vanished Queen is a \"big, dark, intricate novel\" (Lousia Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches) about the courage and sacrifice it requires to take on a tyrant.","brand":"S\u0026s\/Saga Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48829463494861,"sku":"9781982141301","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_2b218790-0e17-40bb-a71e-24019e8a47d4.jpg?v=1790212319","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/the-vanished-queen","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
