Book Overview

“Heir is a tour de force of fantasy that will leave readers breathless and boneless and aching for more.” — Stephanie Garber

Prepare for an action-packed, ruthless, and romantic journey in this epic fantasy by Sabaa Tahir, a #1 Sunday Times bestselling and National Book Award-winning author. Heir explores themes of love, legacy, vengeance, and the cost of power.

AIZ grew up in the Kegari slums and has suffered greatly. Driven by an old tragedy, her need for vengeance is matched only by her love for her people. One hot-headed mistake lands her in an inescapable prison, where her wrath reignites.

Sirsha is a down-on-her-luck tracker, banished for a grievous crime. She uses magic to trace her marks and accepts a dangerous job to hunt a serial killer targeting children across the Martial Empire. Unexpected feelings complicate her mission and threaten her resolve.

Quil is the reluctant crown prince, nephew to a venerated empress. As the son of a reviled emperor, he understands how power corrupts. When a fierce new threat endangers the empire, Quil must decide if he can rise above his dark lineage to become the heir his people need.

Sabaa Tahir masterfully weaves the stories of these three young people as they navigate power, love, betrayal, and sacrifice. Heir is a dark and gripping tale where every choice may cost lives—and hearts.
