About this book

Return to Arcana Academy for tarot magic, romance, and world-shattering adventure in the final volume of this New York Times bestselling fantasy romance trilogy.

Clara Graysword has always wanted to make the world a better place for the people that she loves: Her fellow Arcanists. Her beloved friends from the Star-Crossed Club. The people of Oricalis who could benefit from tarot magic. Her sister Arina. And her true love, Prince Kaelis.

But bettering the world leads to remaking it entirely. And Clara reaps the unintended consequences of wielding immense power.

Because she finds herself in a new reality: A place filled with people she loves, yet not always as she remembers them. A reality where she would've hoped all her dreams should have come to pass, but now finds herself confronted with an inconceivably ancient evil possessing the heart of the man she loves.

Some struggles cannot be left to fate. While her future may be in the cards, victory must be claimed with her own two hands. And to triumph, Clara will need powers even greater than tarot magic: Courage. Strength. And a love that has luck on its side.

Praise for this book

Betrayal and hidden agendas abound in Kova’s latest, keeping fans of do-or-die magical competitions turning the pages. Perfect for those who like Jennifer L. Armentrout and Rachel Gillig.
★ Library Journal
A mysterious academy, uncertain alliances, and a unique spin on tarot make the perfect backdrop for a sexy romance—Arcana Academy is magical from nail-biting beginning to shocking end!
Danielle L. Jensen , New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood
Elise Kova is the queen when it comes to fantasy! Arcana Academy has a brilliant storyline, a unique and refreshing magic system, and a heart-stopping romance.
Laura Thalassa , USA Today bestselling author of the Four Horsemen series
Kova’s characters are well-shaded and her tarot-based magic system feels fresh and exciting. The worldbuilding here is largely limited to the confines of the academy, leaving much to explore in future installments. Fans of Leigh Bardugo and Sarah J. Maas are sure to be pleased.
Publishers Weekly
Elise Kova’s Arcana Academy is pure magic—dark, dazzling, and utterly addictive—with a lushly built world and slow-burn tension that leaves you breathless. I devoured it and immediately wanted more.
