THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES TOP FIVE BESTSELLER

'Moves at a cracking pace and, with neat plot twists and cliffhangers, is page-turning fun' Guardian

Seven resistance fighters will free the galaxy from the ruthless Empire - or die trying.

After Eris faked her death, she thought she had left her old life as Princess Discordia - heir to the galaxy's most ruthless empire - behind. But joining the Novantaen Resistance, an organisation opposed to the Empire's voracious expansion, throws her right back into the fray.

Resistance fighter pilot Clo has been given a mission: infiltrate an Empire spaceship ferrying deadly cargo to gain vital intelligence. A task made all the more difficult when she's forced to partner with an old enemy - Princess Discordia herself, Eris.

They discover more than they bargained for on the ship: fugitives with first-hand knowledge of the Empire's inner workings. With this information, these women might just bring the Empire to its knees. But the clock is ticking: Eris's brother Damocles, new heir to the throne, plans to disrupt a peace summit with the only remaining free alien people, ensuring the Empire's total domination. Unless this band of unlikely rebels stops him, millions will die . . .

Critics Review

  • This first collaboration from Lam (Goldilocks) and May (The Falconer) revels in the frenetic energy of its girl power-infused, space operatic premise

    Publishers Weekly

  • The first book in a duology is a witty, fast-paced, feministspace opera

    Booklist

  • Each of the characters in Seven Devils is distinct with her own character, personality, backstory, and soul

    The Roarbots

  • Unabashedly fun!

    Pajiba

  • Rebellion is bloody business, but necessary – and with an ensemble as memorable as the one you’ll find within the pages of Seven Devils…quite a lot of fun, to boot

    The Fantasy Hive

  • If you’re on the lookout for a smart sci-fi story with a compelling world, sharp dialogue, and a pacy, entertaining plot, featuring kickass women with well-described histories, motivations and development (not to mention queer representation), then look no further than Seven Devils
