"When you become that which you fear most, how do you carry on? Veth Brenatto doesn't have an exciting life, but she likes it that way. Unlike her childhood, it's safe. Predictable. And her husband and son love her almost as fiercely as she loves them. But Veth's cozy existence is turned on its head when she and her family are captured by raiders. In order to save them, Veth will commit an atrocity that will sever her from all that she loves-maybe forever-and lead her to become Nott the Brave of the Mighty Nein."-- Provided by publisher.
