Shades of Ruin and Magic ✓
In the Shades of Ruin and Magic series, the gods are dead—or so the world believes. But in the shadows, something ancient stirs, and with it, the fate of the realms hangs in the balance. At the center of it all is Barbie, a young woman who harbors secrets darker than even she can comprehend. Cursed with a power that can scorch the earth and a lineage that could unravel empires, she disguises herself as a boy to survive, only to find herself thrust into a deadly game of politics, magic, and forbidden love.
This is no ordinary academy. The Shades of Ruin and Magic universe is built on treacherous power struggles, mystical forces, and a deadly selection process where each move could spell doom. As Barbie navigates the deadly trials of the Brides Selection, she is forced to confront her own identity, questioning everything she thought she knew about herself and the world around her. At the same time, the enigmatic and ruthless princes vying for her affection hold secrets of their own—secrets that could either save or destroy them all.
Shades of Ruin and Magic consists of five books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
