Vow of Eternal Night by Lily Crozier

A gothic romantasy ‘Beauty and the Beast’ retelling about a vampire prince and the captive bride who will do anything to break his curse – for fans of Naomi Novik, Heather Fawcett and Howl’s Moving Castle.

*The gorgeous first edition features stunning printed edges.*

Clara Wagner has always known that monsters are real, and that the worst of them is Prince Raleigh of Rostenburg. For years the prince has treated his people as livestock to sate his thirst for blood. But when he decides it’s time to marry, Clara inadvertently finds herself at the centre of his attention.

Abducted and forced into a betrothal against her will, Clara would do anything to escape her fate. And so she is given an ultimatum- lift Raleigh’s vampiric curse before the end of the year or become his bride for eternity.

Vow of Eternal Night is a gothic, slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy inspired by ‘Beauty and the Beast’ about the lengths people will go to for love, and the many faces monsters can wear.

‘It’s rare that a gothic romance surprises me, but Vow of Eternal Night did. Fun, gripping, and desperately goth. One of the best I’ve read all year.’ – T. Kingfisher

‘Deliciously wicked, deeply romantic . . . this is a debut novel you simply cannot miss.’ – C. S. Pacat
