Crown of the Hive (The Beastcaller Chronicles, #7)

Saving her could doom the realm. Killing her could destroy him.

Leo Stormrider has faced Unbeasts before—but never like this.

Sylvia Lightninghand, once his friend and ally, now wears the crown of the Hive. Possessed by a parasite even the Purity Wave cannot touch, she commands an army of hosts and sets her sights on burning Element City to the ground.

When her first strike hits Leo’s heart, grief and fury awaken the Call of the Beast, tempting him to trade his humanity for the strength to kill her. But surrendering to the Call could make him the very monster he hunts.

Beyond the city walls, a new danger rises. The Unbeasts are moving to corrupt the legendary Emperor’s Sword itself, a weapon powerful enough to change the course of the war. If they succeed, no Realm Lord will be able to stand against them.

With the Supreme Realm Lord unwilling to face his own daughter, Leo must choose—save Sylvia and risk the realm… or stop the Queen before her dominion spreads across all of Arinthia.

The Hive is rising. And its crown will not be surrendered.
