Rudá Tygřice Ana se vrátila do Cyrilie. V zemi, jež bývala jejím domovem, však vládne temnota. Císařovna Morganya drtí Spřízněnce i obyčejné lidi železnou pěstí. Anini spojenci byli rozprášeni a pomoc od povstalecké skupiny Rudých plášťů je v nedohlednu. A nejhorší ze všeho je, že Ana ztratila svou schopnost ovládat krev. Bez ní netuší, kým…
Ana je jedinou přeživší z cyrilské císařské rodiny. Nemá armádu, titul ani spojence. Navíc jí hrozí brutální pomsta samozvané císařovny Morganyi. Ta je odhodlaná ustanovit nový řád a prolévat přitom krev obyčejných lidí bez Přízně. Aně zbývá jí jediné: znovu se spojit s Ramsonem Sedmilhářem. On má však taky své plány. Jako vždycky. Přinese revoluce mír - nebo jen zbarví ulice do ruda další krví?
Princezna Ana strávila celý svůj život v paláci. Když ji obviní z vraždy jejího otce, musí uprchnout, aby našla pravého vraha a prokázala svoji nevinu. Sama to rozhodně nedokáže. Ale existuje vůbec někdo, kdo by jí byl ochoten pomoci? Jeden adept by tu byl: prohnilý podrazák Ramson se srdcem černějším než ta nejtemnější noc. Ten má sice vlastní plány a tajemství – ale brzy zjistí, že Ana je nebezpečnější, než si kdy vůbec představoval.
The epic sequel to Song of Silver, Flame Like Night. A fast-paced, riveting YA fantasy inspired by the mythology and folklore of ancient China. Years ago, the Elantian colonizers invaded Lan's homeland and killed her mother in their search to uncover the Last Kingdom's greatest the location of its legendary four Demon Gods. Lan's mother devoted her life to destroying the Demon Gods, and Lan is determined to finish her mission. Yet, there are others searching for the gods, too. Zen knew his soul was forfeit the moment he made a deal with the Demon God known as the Black Tortoise, but he's willing to lose himself if it means saving the Kingdom-and the girl-he loves. But to crush the colonizers who have invaded his land he needs more power than even a single Demon God can provide. He needs an army. And he knows exactly where he can find it-in the undead army his great grandfather lead decades ago. The Elantians may have stolen their throne, but the battle for the Last Kingdom has only begun.
In a fallen kingdom, one girl carries the key to discovering the secrets of her nation's past - and unleashing the demons that sleep at its heart.

Magic to be hidden at all costs. Both Lan and Zen have secrets buried deep within. Fate has connected them, but their destiny remains unwritten. Both hold the power to liberate their land. And both hold the power to destroy the world. A ferocious tale of romance and fate, SONG OF SILVER, FLAME LIKE NIGHT is a gift to those seeking adventure with a mythological twist.
