Immerse yourself in Legendborn, the exhilarating first installment of the #1 New York Times bestselling Legendborn Cycle, now available in a gorgeous collector's edition designed in the style of a medieval rare book. This edition features a faux leather textured hardcase with brand-new cover art by Joohei, full-color endpapers, filigree foil flourishes on the cover, back, and spine, custom designed ornate sprayed stenciled edges, six pieces of original medieval woodblock-style interior artwork, and never-before-seen Legendborn bonus scenes. Some legends are meant to be broken. After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants nothing to do with her family memories or childhood home. A residential program for bright high schoolers seems like the perfect escape-until Bree witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus. A flying demon feeding on human energies. A secret society of so called "Legendborn" students that hunt the creatures down. And a mysterious teenage mage who calls himself a "Merlin" and who attempts-and fails-to wipe Bree's memory of everything he saw. The mage's failure unlocks Bree's own unique magic and a buried memory: The night her mother died, another Merlin was at the hospital. Now, Bree will do whatever it takes to find out the truth, even if that means infiltrating the Legendborn as one of their initiates. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur's knights and explain that a magical war is coming, Bree must decide whether to take the society down-or join the fight.
