Description
In a city torn apart by violence and monsters, two young people are forced to make an impossible choice. Kate Harker wants to be as ruthless as her father, who lets the monsters roam free in exchange for protection. August Flynn, on the other hand, longs to be human again, after being born with the ability to steal a soul with his music. When Kate is kicked out of another boarding school and returns home, she discovers August's secret. After a failed assassination attempt, they must flee for their lives. As they navigate this treacherous world, they will face monsters intent on destroying them from every side - including the darkness within themselves. Victoria Schwab creates a gritty, seething metropolis that is both haunting and mesmerizing. With its dark urban fantasy elements, This Savage Song is a gripping tale of heroism, friendship, and the struggle to find one's place in a world gone mad.
