Our Illumicrate March theme is . . . HAUNTING SPIRITS!
Step carefully through shadows and under twisting vines; this sacred place is home to haunted spirits.
Our March book is a debut adult fantasy! In an empire where witches are hunted, a young woman seeks revenge for the murder of her family and destruction of her village. A violent curse brings her into the path of the empire’s pacifist prince, and together they must decide whether to take power and become which they hate most—or let it go, and watch the world burn around them.
