A little beast maybe, but not a monster.' Nizzara has always been able to perceive spirits better than the average caster. When she enters a deadly tournament to end her betrothal, she's determined to win without succumbing to the addictive spirit magic she channels or taking a life in the duel ring.

Dagen, the last King of Zarr, was killed by Nizzara's father ten years ago. Now a half-ghost - able to phase between his human and spirit form - he is stuck in another realm, hunting wretched souls. When his keeper offers him a chance to reclaim his freedom in exchange for Nizzara's soul, Dagen takes the deal. There's only one catch: she must freely give it to him by the tournament's end or his own soul is forfeit. Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and The Serpent and the Wings of Night, Vesselless is a spellbinding fantasy of magic and intrigue - and a tantalizing slow burn that will have you hooked until the very last page.
