The End Crowns All





The second fierce, fresh and gloriously romantic YA Greek myth fantasy re-imagining from Bea Fitzgerald, Sunday Times bestselling author of Girl, Goddess, Queen.

When Cassandra’s patron god, Apollo, offers her the gift of prophecy she seizes the opportunity. But when she fails to uphold her end of the bargain, she discovers just how very far she has to fall. No one believes her visions, which all seem to be of one girl – a girl who is going to start a war.

Helen fled Sparta in pursuit of love – but is finding it elusive. Now she must navigate the fierce politics and danger of the Trojan court - including from its princess, who seems intent on driving her from the city. . .

But when war finally strikes, Cassandra and Helen must deal with more than just the army at their walls. Cassandra and Helen's fates are more closely tied - and seemingly tragic - than they could have ever imagined. How can you change your future when the gods themselves are dictating your demise?
