The intricate and suspenseful plot, filled with politics, intrigue and even graphic violence, features neither heroes nor villains; every character displays a complex mixture of talents, flaws and motives... " - Kirkus Reviews , starred review "A spellbinding first book in a trilogy about a pair of star-crossed lovers... Like any epic page-turner worth its salt, Rutkoski's richly imagined world is full of dynamic repartee, gruesome battle scenes, and shifting alliances. A high-stakes cliffhanger will leave readers eagerly awaiting the next book." - Publishers Weekly , starred review , " The Winner's Crime teeters on a knife-sharp edge between devastatingly romantic one moment and simply devastating the next.
