*THIS IS BOOK #5 IN THE OUTLIER SERIES* "It isn’t enough to achieve the throne. Once you have it, you must fight to keep it. That’s the purpose of a Weapon." In the penultimate installment of the OUTLIER series, Slum Kings and Rebel Queens vie for power over the Last City of Atlas with the cunning use of plots, ploys, and deadly Weapons. For the newly reunited freefolk of the ninth, circumstances turn dire when they lose one of their own and are forced to enter a war they can no longer avoid. Stranded in the Lifted City, one couple takes a daring and ambitious stance in a trial that could save their framed comrade. A pair of long-lost friends race against time, only to find themselves in the clutches of an unseen enemy. In the shadows of the Abandon, a dangerous plot is underway where two Queens risk everything to reclaim their stolen throne. And in a cold wake of destruction, the Weapon of Atlas brings his mission of vengeance to the very heart of Sanctum for a grim reunion, where the darkest secret of all is at last revealed. *It is recommended to read this series in order* *Some portions of the book end in cliffhangers* OUTLIER: REBELLION (#1) OUTLIER: LEGACY (#2) OUTLIER: REIGN OF MADNESS (#3) OUTLIER: BEYOND OBLIVION (#4) OUTLIER: WEAPONS OF ATLAS (#5) OUTLIER: GIFTS OF THE GODDESS (#6) (not yet released)
