About the Book



What if you've sworn to protect the one you were born to destroy? Tarisai has always longed for the warmth of a family. She was raised in isolation by a mysterious, often absent mother known only as The Lady. When Tarisai comes of age, The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire from Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the Crown Prince's Council of Eleven. If she's picked, she'll be joined with the other Council members through the Ray, a bond deeper than blood. That closeness is irresistible to Tarisai. But The Lady has other ideas, including a magical wish that Tarisai is compelled to obey: Kill the Crown Prince once she gains his trust. Tarisai won't stand by and become someone's pawn -- but is she strong enough to choose a different path for herself? With extraoridinary world-building and breathtaking prose written by an incredible new talent, Raybearer is the story of loyalty, fate, and the lengths we're willing to go to for the ones we love. --



Book Synopsis



Sé testigo de lo que va a pasar.

La novela best seller en la que se basa la próxima superproducción de fantasía de Netflix.

Tarisai siempre ha deseado una familia que la quisiera. Ha crecido aislada, hija de una misteriosa figura llamada La Dama. Pero su momento ha llegado y se dirige a la capital para cumplir su destino: formar parte de los Once del Consejo del Príncipe. Los once consejeros y protectores comparten una unión legendaria a través del Rayo, el vínculo más estrecho que existe en el mundo. Para Tarisai, que ha crecido sin amigos, esta unión es casi un espejismo.

Pero los planes de La Dama son otros: una vez que Tarisai se gane la confianza del Príncipe y forme parte de los Once, deberá matarlo.

Nada es más importante que la lealtad. Pero ¿y si has nacido para destruir lo que más quieres? ¿Es Tarisai lo suficientemente fuerte para cambiar su destino?
