King of Beasts by Katherine Webber (Paperback)

New for 2026, the epic FINALE of the bestselling YA romantasy TWIN CROWNS series!: Book 5. The slow-burn icy YA romance spin-off to the Sunday Times bestselling fantasy series, Twin Crowns. Perfect for fans of Powerless and Throne of Glass!

High in a remote, snow-covered kingdom, King Alarik Felsing rules in isolation. Known for his guarded nature and distance from others, he has built his life around control and solitude, keeping both his kingdom and his emotions tightly contained.

As an ancient beast begins to stir deep within the mountains, the fragile balance of the kingdom is threatened. In response, a skilled wrangler arrives, determined to confront the danger and restore order. Her role is clear, but the challenges she faces go beyond the creature itself.

As their paths cross, the presence of this outsider begins to shift the atmosphere around the king. What starts as a shared purpose gradually becomes something more complex, shaped by tension, curiosity, and growing understanding.

Set against a harsh and unforgiving landscape, their story unfolds through moments of conflict and connection. As the threat in the mountains grows, both must navigate their roles, their responsibilities, and the unexpected changes taking place within themselves.
