This kingdom will not kill me

Ilona Andrews

Book - 2026

"The page-turning politics of Game of Thrones meets the worlds-spanning romance of Outlander in this blockbuster new epic fantasy series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author duo Ilona Andrews. DELUXE EDITION-featuring gorgeous sky blue sprayed edges! When Maggie wakes up cold, filthy, and naked in a gutter, it doesn't take her long to recognize Kair Toren, a city she knows intimately from the pages of the famously unfinished dark fantasy series she's been obsessively reading and re-reading while waiting years for the final novel. Her only tools for navigating this gritty world of rival warlords, magic, and mayhem? Her encyclopedic knowledge of the plot, the setting, and the characters' ambitions and fates. But w...hile she quickly discovers she cannot be killed (though many will try!), the same cannot be said for the living, breathing characters she's coming to love-a motley band that includes a former lady's maid, a deadly assassin, various outrageous magical creatures, and a dangerously appealing soldier. Soon, instead of trying to get home, she finds herself enmeshed in the schemes--and attentions--of dueling princes, dukes, and villains, all while trying to save them and the kingdom of Rellas from the way she knows their stories will end: in a cataclysmic war. For fans of Samantha Shannon, Danielle L. Jensen, Sarah J. Maas, and isekai and portal fantasy, This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me is the beginning of the most epic adventure yet from genre powerhouse author duo Ilona Andrews"-- Provided by publisher.

Review by Library Journal Review

Maggie falls asleep at home in Texas, but when she wakes up, she's lying naked in a ditch nowhere near home. It turns out that she's in the kingdom of Rellas, the setting of her favorite (incomplete) series of fantasy novels. Maggie soon realizes that Rellas is on the brink of destruction by the invading Crimson Empire as well as its own internal politics. Using her wits and deep knowledge of the series, Maggie soon involves herself in the city of Kair Toren, finding a residence and newfound family, including an assassin, a former lady's maid, and a distant but appealing soldier. To keep her friends and new home safe, Maggie is willing to bend the rules and alter what she knows by breaking the timeline and key moments from the books. Every time someone tries to kill her, she comes back to life, so saving the kingdom from a devastating war she already knows about should be easy--right? VERDICT Andrews (Ruby Fever) launches a series that is a love letter to fantasy, exploring both the world of Rellas and characters' backstories in a fully immersive story. Fans of isekai fantasy, doorstopper reads, or authors Samantha Shannon, Danielle L. Jensen, and V. E. Schwab will love this.--Kristi Chadwick
