The Complete Nightborn Duet: Two-Book Dark Fantasy Romance Set by #1 NYT Bestselling Author Carissa Broadbent

About the Book

This two-book paperback set collects the complete Nightborn Duet from bestselling author Carissa Broadbent. Together, these two novels tell one full, heart-wrenching story of survival, dark magic, forbidden love, and devastating betrayal inside a brutal vampire world. It is the perfect entry point into the Crowns of Nyaxia universe.

From the Back Cover

In a world where humans are prey and vampires rule with an iron fist, one human woman dares to fight back — entering a legendary death tournament just to have a chance at becoming something more. But survival means trusting the one person she cannot afford to love.

Love is a sacrifice at the altar of power. And in the ashes of everything she thought was true, she must decide what she is willing to become.

Book 1: The Serpent and the Wings of Night

Oraya is the adopted human daughter of the Nightborn vampire king, and she has carved her place in a world designed to kill her. Her only chance to become something more than prey is entering the Kejari — a legendary tournament held by the goddess of death herself.

But winning is not easy among the most vicious warriors from all three vampire houses. To survive, Oraya is forced into an alliance with a mysterious and dangerous rival named Raihn — a ruthless vampire, an efficient killer, and an enemy to her father’s crown.

The Serpent and the Wings of Night is filled with heart-wrenching romance, dark magic, and bloodthirsty intrigue, making it perfect for fans of From Blood and Ash and A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Book 2: The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King

In the wake of the Kejari, everything Oraya once thought to be true has been destroyed. A prisoner in her own kingdom, grieving the only family she ever had, and reeling from a gutting betrayal, she no longer even knows the truth of her own blood. She is left with only one certainty: she cannot trust anyone, least of all Raihn.

When Raihn offers Oraya a secret alliance, taking the deal is her only chance at reclaiming her kingdom and gaining her vengeance against the lover who betrayed her. But to do so, she will need to harness a devastating ancient power, intertwined with her father’s greatest secrets.

Full of heartbreak, redemption, bloody intrigue, and heart-pounding action, The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King is the gutting conclusion of the Nightborn Duet.

About the Author

Carissa Broadbent is the number 1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Crowns of Nyaxia series. She has been featured in Elle and Publishers Weekly, and her books have been reviewed in Library Journal, Marie Claire, Popsugar, and Vulture. She writes novels that blend epic fantasy plots with a heaping dose of romance and lives in Rhode Island.

Who Is This Book For?

This duet is made for adult readers who love slow-burn romance, dark fantasy worlds, and stories with strong female protagonists who fight for their survival against impossible odds. If you enjoy books like A Court of Thorns and Roses, The Hunger Games, or From Blood and Ash, this set belongs on your shelf.

It is also a great pick for anyone looking to get into a complete, binge-worthy fantasy romance series without waiting for future releases — both books are in your hands from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Do I need to read The Serpent and the Wings of Night before The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King? Yes, absolutely. The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King picks up directly where the first book ends, so reading them in order is important to fully understand the story, the characters, and the emotional weight of the second book. This set makes it easy since both books come together.

Q: Is the Nightborn Duet a dark fantasy romance or just fantasy? It is both. The Crowns of Nyaxia series is known as a romantasy — a blend of epic fantasy and deep romance. Expect intense world-building, vampire politics, and a slow-burn love story that builds across both books. It is darker and more mature than typical romance, with action, magic, and real emotional stakes throughout.

Q: Is this set suitable for young adult readers? This duet is written for adults and older new adult readers (18 and up). It contains graphic violence, mature themes, and adult romantic content. It is not recommended for younger teen readers, though older teens familiar with dark fantasy may find it appealing with parental guidance.

Q: How does this series compare to A Court of Thorns and Roses or From Blood and Ash? Readers who loved those series tend to enjoy the Crowns of Nyaxia duet for very similar reasons — a fierce heroine, a dangerous love interest, an immersive fantasy world, and romance that is worth the wait. Many reviewers describe it as just as addictive, if not more so, with its own unique vampire lore and tournament-based plot that keeps the tension high from page one.

Short Summary

The Nightborn Duet follows Oraya, a human woman raised by a vampire king in a world that sees her as nothing more than food. Desperate to prove herself, she enters a brutal, goddess-held tournament where alliances are deadly and trust is the most dangerous weapon of all. Along the way, she is forced to work beside Raihn, a powerful rival vampire who challenges everything she believes about her world and herself. By the second book, the tournament is over but the real battle has just begun — one where the lines between love and betrayal, power and sacrifice, are impossible to see clearly. Together, these two books deliver a complete emotional journey full of dark magic, political intrigue, and a romance that earns every heartbreaking moment.

Experience the Thrilling Conclusion to the Folk of the Air Series with The Queen of Nothing by Holly Black

About the Book

The Queen of Nothing is the spellbinding conclusion to Holly Black’s internationally bestselling Folk of the Air trilogy. After being exiled to the mortal world by the High King she once loved, Jude Duarte must navigate life without power, purpose, or the faerie realm she fought so hard to claim. But when a threat emerges that could destroy everything she left behind, Jude is pulled back into the treacherous world of Elfhame—where every alliance is fragile, every promise is a trap, and reclaiming her crown means risking her heart all over again. This is a story of resilience, revenge, and the fierce determination of a girl who refuses to be forgotten.

From the Back Cover

“After being pronounced Queen of Faerie and then abruptly exiled by the Wicked King Cardan, Jude finds herself unmoored, the queen of nothing. She spends her time with Vivi and Oak, watching reality television and doing odd jobs, including squaring up to a cannibalistic faerie. When her twin sister Taryn shows up asking for help, Jude must return to the treacherous High Court of Elfhame. But Cardan is in trouble, and Jude will have to risk everything to save him—and Faerie itself.”
