The Almost King
Return to a world of airships and adventure in this sequel to Take Back the Skies, perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer and Sarah J. Maas.
In the second book in this sprawling saga, Aleks is the youngest of four brothers, each with his future predictably mapped out. But Aleks wants more than a life in his father’s shop. So when he hears his parents worrying about money, he decides to save them the cost of his keep by running away.
Aleks joins the army — but when that doesn’t answer his problems, he breaks the law and deserts. Wanted and alone, he heads north, where he stumbles into love, adventure, and a skyship he might be able to call home... if he can evade the soldiers pursuing him.
Prepare for another sweeping adventure by eighteen-year-old Lucy Saxon in a series that seamlessly blends genre elements and a compelling contemporary voice.
