Theodosia was six when her country was invaded and her mother, the Fire Queen, was murdered before her eyes. On that day, the Kaiser took Theodosia's family, her land, and her name. Theo was crowned Ash Princess--a title of shame to bear in her new life as a prisoner.
For ten years Theo has been a captive in her own palace. She's endured the relentless abuse and ridicule of the Kaiser and his court. She is powerless, surviving in her new world only by burying the girl she was deep inside.
Then, one night, the Kaiser forces her to do the unthinkable. With blood on her hands and all hope of reclaiming her throne lost, she realizes that surviving is no longer enough. But she does have a weapon: her mind is sharper than any sword. And power isn't always won on the battlefield.
For ten years, the Ash Princess has seen her land pillaged and her people enslaved. That all ends here.
"Sure to be one of the summer's most talked about YAs. . . . A darkly enchanting page-turner you won't be able to put down."-Bustle
The Kaiser murdered Theodosia's mother, the Fire Queen, when Theo was only six. He took Theo's country and kept her prisoner, crowning her Ash Princess--a pet to toy with and humiliate for ten long years. That era has ended. The Kaiser thought his prisoner weak and defenseless. He didn't realize that a sharp mind is the deadliest weapon.
Theo no longer wears a crown of ashes. She has taken back her rightful title, and a hostage--Prinz Soren. But her people remain enslaved under the Kaiser's rule, and now she is thousands of miles away from them and her throne.
To get them back, she will need an army. Only, securing an army means she must trust her aunt, the dreaded pirate Dragonsbane. And according to Dragonsbane, an army can only be produced if Theo takes a husband. Something an Astrean Queen has never done.
Theo knows that freedom comes at a price, but she is determined to find a way to save her country without losing herself.
Praise for the Ash Princess Series:
"A darkly enchanting page-turner you won't be able to put down."--Bustle
"A smart, feminist twist on a traditional tale of a fallen heroine, with plenty of court intrigue, love, and lies to sweeten the deal. Good luck putting this one down." --Virginia Boecker, author of The Witch Hunter series
"This searing page-turner is a compelling examination of the complexities of both evil and resistance."--Sarah Porter, author of Vassa in the Night
"A dark and spellbinding epic." --Sara Holland, New York Times bestselling author of Everless
"A rebel queen fans the sparks of revolution...[and] Theo's first-person narration remains enthralling with emotional immediacy...[while] packed to the brim with intrigue and the promise."-Kirkus Reviews
Princess Theodosia was a prisoner in her own country for a decade. Renamed the Ash Princess, she endured relentless abuse and ridicule from the Kaiser and his court. But though she wore a crown of ashes, there is fire in Theo's blood. As the rightful heir to the Astrean crown, it runs in her veins. And if she learned anything from her mother, it's that a Queen never cowers.
Now free, with a misfit army of rebels to back her, Theo must liberate her enslaved people and face a terrifying new enemy: the new Kaiserin. Imbued with a magic no one understands, the Kaiserin is determined to burn down anyone and everything in her way.
The Kaiserin's strange power is growing stronger, and with Prinz Søren as her hostage, there is more at stake than ever. Theo must learn to embrace her own power if she has any hope of standing against the girl she once called her heart's sister.

Princesa. Prisionera. Huérfana. Rebelde.
Cuando todo lo que queda de tu pasado son cenizas, debes buscar muy dentro de ti para encontrar la llama que puede devolverte la fuerza.

Pero cuando el dictador la obliga a ejecutar a la única persona que podría haberla salvado de su pesadilla, Theodosia decide resurgir de las cenizas. Su astucia es más poderosa que cualquier espada. Y un reino no se gana siempre en el campo de batalla.
Durante diez años la Princesa deCenizas ha visto su tierra saqueada y a su pueblo esclavizado. Ha llegado el momento de ponerle fin a esta opresión.
Reseñas:
«Un inicio de serie emocionalmente complejo y repleto de suspense que te deja sin aliento.»
Booklist
«Una trama que mezcla con habilidad intriga política, magia poderosa y debilitante y los violentos mecanismos de la colonización, sumergiendo al lector en una trama tan turbulenta como cautivadora.»
Kirkus Reviews
«Una ventana abierta a las complejidades de las relaciones y emociones humanas, las tensiones familiares y la falsa cara pública que a veces se necesita en la política y en la corte [...] Un final apoteósico para una secuela.»

PRINCESA • PRISIONEIRA • ÓRFÃ • REBELDE
Theodosia era a herdeira do trono de Astrea quando seu reino foi invadido, deixando um rastro de destruição.
Dez anos depois, a princesa, órfã, prisioneira e subjugada, percebe que não lhe resta mais nada, a não ser lutar pela própria liberdade.
O passado, que por tanto tempo ficou enterrado, agora precisa vir à tona para mostrar a Theodosia os caminhos que poderão levá-la de volta ao trono.
Mas Theo conseguirá ser a rainha de que seu povo precisa? Ou será que anos de humilhações transformaram a herdeira da Rainha do Fogo em meras cinzas?
Die Fortsetzung der grandiosen »Ash Princess«! Nach ihrer spektakulären Flucht vor dem Kaiser bleibt die einstige Ash Princess Theodora eine Gefangene ihrer Pflichten: Eine strategische Heirat steht an, um Astrea mit militärischer Stärke zu befreien. Am Hof von König Eristo erhalten Theo und ihre kleine Entourage Exil, um den geeigneten Partner zu finden. Doch während Theo versucht, zwischen ihren Freunden und ihrer Geisel Prinz Sören Vertrauen zu stiften, wütet ein kaltblütiger Mörder unter den Heiratsanwärtern. Steckt der Kaiser dahinter? Dann muss auch Theo um ihr Leben fürchten. Doch da kommt von unerwarteter Seite Unterstützung ...
Theo ist noch ein Kind, als ihre Mutter, die Fire Queen, vor ihren Augen ermordet wird. Der brutale Kaiser raubt dem Mädchen alles: die Familie, das Reich, die Sprache, den Namen. Und er macht aus ihr die Ash Princess, ein Symbol der Schande für ihr Volk. Aber Theo ist stark. Zehn Jahre lang hält die Hoffnung sie am Leben, den Thron irgendwann zurückzuerobern, allem Spott und Hohn zum Trotz. Als der Kaiser Theo eines Nachts zu einer furchtbaren Tat zwingt, wird klar: Um ihren Traum zu erfüllen, muss sie zurückschlagen – und die Achillesferse des Kaisers ist sein Sohn. Doch womit Theo nicht gerechnet hat, sind ihre Gefühle für den Prinzen ...
