A New York Times bestselling series!
The highly anticipated third novel in the This Woven Kingdom series, full of powerful magic, searing romance, and heartbreaking betrayal, from the award-winning and bestselling author of the Shatter Me series. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo, Sabaa Tahir, and Tomi Adeyemi.
As the long-lost heir to the Jinn throne, Alizeh has finally found her people—and she might've found her crown. Cyrus, the mercurial ruler of Tulan, has offered her his kingdom in a twisted exchange: one that would begin with their marriage and end with his murder.
Cyrus's dark reputation precedes him; all the world knows of his blood-soaked past. Killing him should be easy—and accepting his offer might be the only way to fulfill her destiny and save her people. But the more Alizeh learns of him, the more she questions whether the terrible stories about him are true.
Ensnared by secrets, Cyrus has ached for Alizeh since she first appeared in his dreams many months ago. Now that he knows those visions were planted by the devil, he can hardly bear to look at her—much less endure her company. But despite their best efforts to despise each other, Alizeh and Cyrus are drawn together over and over with an all-consuming thirst that threatens to destroy them both.
Meanwhile, Prince Kamran has arrived in Tulan, ready to exact revenge...
Layered with exquisite tension and heart-stopping romance, All This Twisted Glory is the explosive third book in the captivating, bestselling Woven Kingdom series.

With all jinnkind advancing toward Tulan, Alizeh must hasten to secure both crown and land to protect her people in this follow-up to These Infinite Threads (2023). Alizeh knows that accepting King Cyrus' proposal of marriage will bring her the power to protect her people and seek her destiny, but she's unprepared to deliver the death that will release him from the Devil's torment. Cyrus guards the terms of his deal with Iblees closely, but his passionate feelings for Alizeh, first implanted in sensuous dreams by the fallen jinn, are their own kind of torture. He refuses to believe that Alizeh's feelings of contempt have evolved into real tenderness and desire for him. For her part, Alizeh cannot completely trust Cyrus, bound as he is to Iblees, even if she desperately wants to. Further complicating matters are the arrival of Prince Kamran and Alizeh's Ardunian friends--the prince wants revenge against the Tulanian king for the death of his grandfather and demands an explanation of Alizeh's perceived betrayal. Stunned by the accusation, Alizeh realizes that her feelings for Kamran have dissipated and is further shocked by his belief that the prophecy foretells their union. But the truth of the prophecy may not be yet known, and the devil, ever the master of deceit, has never lost a wager. Mafi continues her stunning, spellbinding epic narrative of secrets, confusion, and burning desire in a volume that's more about characterization than action but is still a fast, gripping read. Captivating. (Fantasy. 14-18)COPYRIGHT(2023) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
