Anthem of the Cursed Empire

As Elynn finally discovers a way to save her sister from the annual offering, she finds herself in the brutal world swarming with accursed beasts, serving the queen of one of five realms. If she wants to survive, she must follow the rules.
She must not disobey.
She must not be curious.
And she must not reveal that she is not sixteen-her sister she’s pretending to be.
But following the rules is a challenge for someone like Elynn who finds it hard to tolerate injustice, keep questions to herself and mind her own business instead of satiating her curious nature. Every unfair act makes her blood boil. With every day spent in the oppressive environment, her hope withers. And blinded by the promise to avenge them all, her sanity turns fragile.
And as she thinks her current situation could not get any worse, here comes the world’s most feared monster who knows Elynn’s secret, and not only that.

Out on the Yorkshire Moors lives a secret line of people for whom books are food, and who retain all of a book's content after eating it. To them, spy novels are a peppery snack; romance novels are sweet and delicious. Eating a map can help them remember destinations, and children, when they misbehave, are forced to eat dry, musty pages from dictionaries.
Devon is part of The Family, an old and reclusive clan of book eaters. Her brothers grow up feasting on stories of valor and adventure, and Devon―like all other book eater women―is raised on a carefully curated diet of fairy tales and cautionary stories.
But real life doesn't always come with happy endings, as Devon learns when her son is born with a rare and darker kind of hunger―not for books, but for human minds.
Vengeful
Sydney Clarke once had Serena―beloved sister, betrayed enemy, powerful ally. But now she's alone, except for her thrice-dead dog, Dol. And then there's Victor, who thinks Sydney doesn't know about his most recent act of vengeance. Victor himself is under the radar these days―being buried and re-animated can strike concern even if one has superhuman powers. And Eli Ever still has yet to pay for the evil he has done.
