Caraval meets Flowerheart in this rich and immersive cozy fantasy, where dazzling magic, lush descriptions, and a sweet sapphic romance cast an irresistible spell. Ida's father went missing without a trace seven years ago, last seen at the court of the enigmatic Night King, which comes to life only after dark with magic and revelry. So when a position opens up for a new court Luminaire, Ida doesn't hesitate. She inherited her gift for enchantments from her father--and with this position, she'll use it to find him again. Ida is swept into the king's collection of magical beings, those who bring light and entertainment to the Court's midnight gatherings--and swept away by the Court, where faerie gardens edge into underwater masquerades, dreaming revels offer blissful escapes, and life is a mesmerizing euphoria. Yet a sinister thread interrupts Ida's nights of decadence. Memories go missing, the castle's magic takes on a malevolence, and Ida can't seem to leave the boundaries of the court itself. Enlisting the help of the king's breathtakingly beautiful daughter Lenore, Ida must unravel the castle's secrets... before this enchanted world destroys her.
