Princess of Souls: from the author of To Kill a Kingdom, the TikTok sensation! Kindle Edition
In this Rapunzel-inspired fantasy, a young witch, groomed to steal souls for an immortal king, meets the reckless, rebellious boy to whom her fate is tied.
For sixteen years, Selestra has been trapped in her tower on the Floating Mountain, preparing to take her mother's place as the King's Witch, who foretells deaths in the Festival of Predictions. Outrunning your fate earns a wish and the chance to steal the King's immortality. But die and your soul is forfeit. And though thousands have tried, nobody has ever beaten death.
A soldier in the King's army, Nox is an unlikely candidate for the Festival, but, driven by revenge, he is determined to steal the King's immortality and kill the entirety of his court, starting with Selestra.
Yet when Selestra touches Nox in her very first prediction, their fates become entwined, and death seeks to take both their souls. Only by working together can they survive long enough to escape the dark fate and the immortal King that now hunts them.

Review
Christo's writing is evocative and propulsive, whisking characters from one heart-stopping confrontation to the next as the story builds [. . .] she showcases skillful worldbuilding with tantalizing lore and magic systems. This novel immerses readers in a vivid world of cursed witches, ruthless kings, and unimaginable power. Fans of Christo's To Kill a Kingdom will delight in returning to this universe, and readers of fairy-tale retellings and fast-paced YA fantasy will find this a unique, compelling reimagining of the classic Rapunzel tale. ― School Library Journal
Princess of Souls sucked me in from the very first sentence. Its premise is as delightful as it is creepy, with characters to match. Nox and Selestra are here for vengeance, and everybody else had better stay out of their way. ― Tricia Levenseller, author of The Shadows Between Us
High stakes and dangerous escapades. Princess of Souls takes you on a thrilling journey alongside a witch trying to walk her own path and the clever soldier laying the way. This is Rapunzel glistening with dark magic galore. ― Chloe Gong, the New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights
In this reimagined Rapunzel story, set in the same world as Christo's To Kill a Kingdom (2018), pale-skinned, green-haired, snake-eyed Selestra knows that her destiny is to become the king's witch like her mother, doomed to foretell the deaths of hundreds of people, most of whom will have their souls consumed to maintain King Seryth's immortality. Selestra's reading of magnetic Last Army soldier Nox reveals that their fates are inextricably intertwined, and as they try to
escape their deaths, a spark of attraction grows into something incendiary. Dual perspectives keep the narrative moving, and vibrant imagery combined with humorous banter and excellent interpersonal chemistry will make this a joy for fans of slow-burn romances.
