But dark magic lurks around every corner, and her cutthroat opponents are willing to bend the rules to make their own wishes come true.

Reviews
A lush, thrilling novel that's heartfelt and captivating from start to finish. I absolutely loved my time with the Fury sisters and their immortal game, and Saft continues to dazzle.
A deft, powerful exploration of the complexity of sibling bonds, the sharp edges of our dreams, and the healing capacity of love. Romantic, moving, and utterly magical.
Master storyteller Saft's brilliant, wonderfully prickly, dangerously charming characters will capture your heart. Immortal Game conjures a world deeply evocative yet utterly fresh, full of clashing egos and life or death choices, where myths play out in surprising new patterns and nothing is black and white.
As well-woven and irresistible as a fae bargain, Immortal Game ensnared me in its clever game from the start and refused to release me until its final, perfectly executed move. Enthralling romance, engrossing character work, and exceptional prose make this story irresistible. Allison Saft proves once again why she's a singular force within the fantasy space. A must-read.
