Mild House of Sky and Breath spoilers are ahead
Crescent City: House of Flame and Shadow will continue the story of Bryce Quinlan, the half-human and half-fae series protagonist. At the end of House of Sky and Breath, Bryce found herself in a new realm. The very realm that characters from Maas’ other series A Court of Thorns and Roses is set in. This had many fans excited at a Maas connected universe finally coming to fruition.
Bloomsbury released a brief synopsis to accompany this announcement.
“Hunt is trapped in a dungeon, stripped of freedom and without a clue as to Bryce’s fate. With House of Flame and Shadow, the Crescent City series reaches new heights as Bryce and Hunt’s world is brought to the brink of collapse – with its fate resting on their shoulders.”
