Every 100 years, the island of Lightlark appears to host the Centennial, a deadly game that only the rulers of six realms are invited to play. The invitation is a summons—a call to embrace victory and ruin, baubles and blood. The Centennial offers the six rulers one final chance to break the curses that have plagued their realms for centuries. Each ruler has something to hide. Each realm’s curse is uniquely wicked. To destroy the curses, one ruler must die. To survive, Isla Crown must lie, cheat, and betray . . . even as love complicates everything. Review: So Pretty - Beautiful Binding.

Stunning Collector’s Edition With Beautiful Design
Haven’t read yet, but the edition is visually gorgeous and feels very premium. The cover design alone makes it worth owning for collectors.

A Great Mix of Fantasy, Romance, and Adventure
I own this version and the regular one and I must say this edition is gorgeous. I love the pictures on the inside and details on the box. I’m surprised by how much criticism this book has received, because I genuinely enjoyed it. Lightlark delivers a unique fantasy world with high stakes and a heroine whose struggles feel believable and human. Some reviews call Isla immature or too focused on her own powerlessness, but to me, that was part of what made her character compelling. She spent most of her life locked away, isolated from everyone else, of course she wouldn’t suddenly emerge fully confident or polished. It made sense that being surrounded by powerful, charismatic rulers would heighten her insecurities. I also appreciated the way the book balanced court intrigue, romance, and twists without feeling overwhelming. The pacing kept me turning pages, and the setting of the Centennial was creative and atmospheric. If you enjoy stories about reluctant leaders, impossible choices, and hidden magic, Lightlark is definitely worth picking up. I think sometimes readers expect every fantasy protagonist to be instantly empowered and decisive, but this story shows what it’s like to grow into your strength and to question whether you even want it.

Most Stunning piece I have on my shelf.
A beautiful edition of one of my favorite series, the sprayed edges are a wonderful detail including the crowns each of the ruler's wear, with the special chapter from Grim's POV, (although I recommend reading Night Bane for it to make sense first,) with a beautiful black and gold hardcover with lots of detail, and the wonderful official art of the characters in the back of the book, a fantastic read and a spectacular cover.

A STUNNING Collector's Edition for an Amazing Book!
I was only half way through reading Lightlark when this edition was announced. Without even finishing the book, I instantly pre-ordered this stunning collectors edition. I love the official artwork, which really helps solidify the characters while reading. I'm so excited that they are doing the next book Nightbane in the same style! It's truly a collectors item!

éditions collector Lightlark
Je commence par dire que je ne suis pas pour la commercialisation de diverses éditions juste pour faire du business mais j'en suis tout de même victime. Cependant, le livre est arrivé en très bon état. Le prix est correcte. Il y a un coffret, des fanarts, la mise en page est la même que celle du hardcover basique. Il y a un chapitre bonus, mais je pense qu'il est possible le trouver en ligne (je ne suis pas sûre que ce soit le même que celui de la romance édition de Barnes and Noble). Le matériel de la couverture peut faire penser un peu à du tissu mais je ne serais pas trop comment le décrire. J'ai beaucoup d'éditions collectors, mais je dois dire que celle-ci est très belle, une des plus belles que j'ai.

⭐️ Stunning edition ⭐️
This collector’s edition is simply stunning ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The design is gorgeous both inside and out, the silver of the protective cover works so well with the silky black texture of the cover, the golden crown, heart and sword captured in it and red painted edges from the book inside. I had waiting for a while to be able to get my hands on one of this enchanting editions of one of my favorite books to add to my collection and now that I got it, it didn’t disappoint at all, it arrived in perfect condition and was definitely worth the wait.
