The games are over. Let chaos reign.

Calla Tuoleimi has done the impossible. Against all odds, she won San-Er's bloody games and eliminated King Kasa, her tyrant uncle and the former ruler of Talin. She now serves as royal advisor to August Shenzhi, who has risen to the throne.

Only Calla knows it isn't really August.

Anton Makusa is still furious about Calla's betrayal in the final round of the games. In an impossible feat, he took over August's body to survive, and has no intention of giving up this newfound power. But when his first love awakens from a years-long coma and reveals a secret that threatens the monarchy, chaos erupts.

As tensions come to a boiling point, Calla and Anton will have to journey to the kingdom's furthest reaches to prevent anarchy - before their real identities are exposed . . .©2024 Chloe Gong

Critic reviews

PRAISE FOR CHLOE GONG

Ferociously savage and full of the most delicious twists, Vilest Things lives up to all my highest and most unhinged expectations

Dark, dazzling, and deliciously depraved, Chloe Gong pulls no punches in this heart-pounding sequel to Immortal Longings. The prose is as smart and lethally sharp as the characters, the tension is palpable on every page, and the twists will leave you breathless. To say I'm obsessed would be an understatement

The only thing hotter than a character written by Chloe Gong is a betrayal written by Chloe Gong. The scale of world-building and depths of romantic hostility grabbed me by the throat (and I said thank you)

A knife-sharp sequel smoldering with vengeance and intrigue. Chloe Gong does not pull her punches, and you'll thank her for the pain

Immortal Longings is a grab-you-and-won't-let-go sort of book, as brutal and merciless as its characters

Gripping, bewildering, irresistible, Chloe Gong's Immortal Longings is a tour de force of Asian Futurism

Vilest Things is another cutthroat classic from the amazing Chloe Gong

A fast-paced adventure, balancing each of the main characters' dubious morality with the tension of the prior relationships Anton had with both Calla and Otta. Readers will excitedly await the next adventure

Smart, imaginative, and brutal, Immortal Longings is a mind- and genre-bending epic that is as cutting and honest as it is unpredictable
