Further DetailsTitle: This Shattered Promise Condition: New Description: In a world where life itself must be paid for if you want to survive... what would happen if you could buy more? This sequel to the Carnegie-nominated These Stolen Lives is a thrilling and beautifully written dystopian romantasy, full of tension, romance and godly powers. Perfect for fans of Malorie Blackman and Tahereh Mafi. After her secret involvement in a rebellion against the Skøl government, seventeen-year-old Mora has now been separated from her friend Kit, just as they realized their feelings for each other. Targeted for her rare memory and drawing skills, she has been dragged to help unscrupulous Sciencemaster General, Sacrifice Sting, deliver a breakthrough for the High Governor: the key to immortality. Can the Skøl conquer death itself? And at what price? The secret may lie in ancient Xan wisdom that Kit's native people, sequestered in their last enclave in the Badlands, have long guarded. In the wrong hands, these powers would be utterly devastating. Can Kit and Mora manage to find each other again - and save their future? These Stolen Lives was nominated for the Carnegie Medal for Writing 2025 and longlisted for the Branford Boase Award 2025. A gorgeous, slow-burn romance full of longing and hope, drawn in a dual narrative. New villains, mysterious new allies, rich new settings and a deeper exploration of folkloric, mythic fantasy magic and dangerous gods... Sensitive and intelligently explored themes of colonialism, greed, injustice and equality.
