About this book
Perfect for fans of Aurora Rising, The Hunger Games, and Three Dark Crowns, this electrifying duology closer is jam-packed with tension and thrills that will hook readers from its first page. Alyssa Farshot never wanted to rule the empire. But to honor her uncle’s dying wish, she participated in the crownchase, a race across the empire’s 1,001 planets to find the royal seal and win the throne. Alyssa tried to help her friend, Coy, win the crownchase, but just as victory was within their grasp, Edgar Voles killed Coy—and claimed the seal for himself. Broken-hearted over her friend’s death, Alyssa is hell-bent on revenge. But Edgar is well protected in the kingship. Alyssa will have to rally rivals, friends, and foes from across the empire to take him down and change the course of the galaxy.
Censorship history
In 2024, "Thronebreakers" by Rebecca Coffindaffer was banned at the school level in several districts across the United States due to concerns over its themes and content, categorized under "Other." The ban was initiated following formal complaints from parents and community members who argued that the book's portrayal of power struggles and violence was inappropriate for students. Specific details regarding the challengers or formal proceedings have not been documented, but the ban reflects a growing trend of censorship in educational settings concerning young adult literature.
