Summary

Once upon a dark dream， the gods told me of our ruin，
But I wasn’t nearly as afraid as I should have been。

The walls of my world are crumbling， and it may be too late to save us。
The clock is ticking， and a cruel fate has been laid at my feet，
And now I am standing at a crossroads with the blade of destiny in my grip。

To strike would be to end us all， but staying my hand is not an option。
So perhaps it’s time to accept that my sins may cause the Fae to fall。

This is a prequel novella set 1000 years before A Game of Malice and Greed。 Once upon a tangled tale of broken hearts and blackened souls， comes a brand new fantasy romance series retelling from the Wall Street Journal and Amazon #1 bestselling fantasy romance authors of Zodiac Academy。 Step into this world of Fae， gods and curses unlike any retelling you’ve read before。

TW: Please be aware there is mention of rape in this story， though it is not described nor on page。

⭐️: 5/5🌶️: 5/10Man have I missed the twisted sisters writing！ So excited for this new world。 This prequel was perfect to introduce us to this world and who I’m thinking will be a key player in AGOMAG series moving forward。 Can’t wait to see where this series goes。

Brooke （brookes_booknook） ，

I really enjoyed this novella。 Getting to see how the fall happened and the events that took place to set the ball rolling。 I absolutely love Kyra。 She did what she had to to revenge her sister after the emperor took what wasn’t his。 She may have spoke the first lie but he started it all by his selfish actions。 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️。5/5🌶️🌶️/5

Jessica Sexton ，

3/5 ⭐️1/5🌶️ I am definitely interested to get AGOMAG in my hands and start getting a little more world building。 I know that this was a prequel but it just felt like it was lacking something。 Like I didn’t fully understand their affinities and how they worked。

Stacey ，

OMG。 I cannot wait until Friday when AGOMAG releases。

This was so damn good。 I loved Kyra and her bond with her sister。 She will do anything to protect her family。 And when everything is taken from her， she will sacrifice everything in her quest for revenge。 This was devastating and beautiful and horrifying in its consequences。 I'm so ready to see the story continue in A Game of Malice and Greed。 This was so damn good。 I loved Kyra and her bond with her sister。 She will do anything to protect her family。 And when everything is taken from her， she will sacrifice everything in her quest for revenge。 This was devastating and beautiful and horrifying in its consequences。 I'm so ready to see the story continue in A Game of Malice and Greed。 。。。more

"But the goddess of death and ruin did not rise to my pleas， did not answer my request， and no matter how potent my own power was， I was no match for death itself。" Enjoyed the concept of the movie Gods of Egypt？ Then this is the series for you。 Oh my gosh。 A power packed prequel to the upcoming book， A Game of Malice and Greed。 I was already so curious about AGOMAG， but after reading this novella my interest has been heightened。 ✔️ Fallen fae✔️ Betrayal✔️ Set 1000 years before AGOMAG ✔️ Mor "But the goddess of death and ruin did not rise to my pleas， did not answer my request， and no matter how potent my own power was， I was no match for death itself。" Enjoyed the concept of the movie Gods of Egypt？ Then this is the series for you。 Oh my gosh。 A power packed prequel to the upcoming book， A Game of Malice and Greed。 I was already so curious about AGOMAG， but after reading this novella my interest has been heightened。 ✔️ Fallen fae✔️ Betrayal✔️ Set 1000 years before AGOMAG ✔️ Morally grey FMC ✔️ Spicy The writing has matured so much when you compare it to Zodiac Academy or Ruthless Boys。 A Kingdom of gods and Ruin is a breath of fresh air， I was immediately sucked in to the story。 The plot is different， and certainly not something that I've read before。 The plot twists in just a 121 page novella were chef's kiss。 There were moments when I teared up。 The world building is so interesting， can't wait to explore more of it。We follow Kyra's journey who is a force to be reckoned with。 Full of personality and wits。 I honestly agree with what she did。 I can't wait to see what she becomes into in AGOMAG and what her fate holds。 The ending was so raw and heartbreaking。 Y'all am telling you this series is going to be worth investing your time and has the potential to be as good， if not more， as Zodiac Academy。 Highly recommended 😉 。。。more

Leeanne ，

I was going to give it four stars and then the sisters hit us at the end with that twist that made me gasp out loud。 Wasn’t expecting that！ Really looking forward to the Malice and Greed book releasing on Friday！

Kaitlyn ，

So， so good！ Excited to learn all about this new world。 The sisters have outdone themselves in this novella so I can onlyImagine the roller coaster of emotions AGOMAG will be！！

Jordyn | Thesleepybookshelf ，

If this is just the prequel then we are in for a wild ride with this series。 The sisters have yet to let me down and I don’t this series will either。

This was quite a way to enter this world。 It definitely has that signature Twisted Sisters pain。 I'm so looking forward to a Game of Malice and Greed！ This was quite a way to enter this world。 It definitely has that signature Twisted Sisters pain。 I'm so looking forward to a Game of Malice and Greed！ 。。。more

Ughh I literally cannot wait for the book to come out

Not that I’m surprised but dear God they have done it again。 This was but a peek into the world that is to come in this debut series and I am so ready for it！ Kyra is an amazing character and I can’t wait to see her in the series。 Her origin story was nothing but sorrow and devastation but I’m 100 percent here for it and excited to see where this series goes！

A Kingdom of Gods and Ruin is a great intro to the new series Gods of Malice and Greed。 Its a short novella， just over 100 pages but it's still jammed with action， tension and heartbreak。 I like the characters that have been introduced so far and that we have some background of their lives and some worldbuilding before the new series starts。 It's definitely made me excited to pick up GOMAG。 "There are two cliffs。 The one you fall off blindly and the one you jump off freely。 Both hurt when you hi A Kingdom of Gods and Ruin is a great intro to the new series Gods of Malice and Greed。 Its a short novella， just over 100 pages but it's still jammed with action， tension and heartbreak。 I like the characters that have been introduced so far and that we have some background of their lives and some worldbuilding before the new series starts。 It's definitely made me excited to pick up GOMAG。 "There are two cliffs。 The one you fall off blindly and the one you jump off freely。 Both hurt when you hit the ground。 But I'd always prefer to see my fate coming for me" 。。。more

My soul is ready for AGOMAG 🙌

Molly ，

That last 25% was a rollercoaster 🎢 Once again， I am unaware of what type of crack the twisted sisters put in this novella， but I already know AGOMAG is going to be a new favourite series for sure 👌🏻

Kaytlin Pettitt ，

Holy。 This was an amazing beginning！ There was so much tension and heartbreak and emotion。 I was on the edge of my seat the whole time。 It was so intense。 I loved it。 The Twisted Sisters never fail。 Can’t wait for the full book to come out！

Loves this little novella！ I was captivated and hanging on every word unsure of where it was going。 I can’t wait to get into the first book。

Danielle Betts ，

This was a wonderful introduction for what’s to come next in A game of malice and greed。 You really get to know Kyra ‘s character throughout this prequel who is fiercely loyal and devoted to her sister。 There is love， betrayal， heartache and revenge with lots of tension。 The twisted sisters writing always amazes me， there is so much detail with every page that captivates your heart and you really feel fully submerged into the pages with Kyra like you’re right there alongside her。 So beautifully This was a wonderful introduction for what’s to come next in A game of malice and greed。 You really get to know Kyra ‘s character throughout this prequel who is fiercely loyal and devoted to her sister。 There is love， betrayal， heartache and revenge with lots of tension。 The twisted sisters writing always amazes me， there is so much detail with every page that captivates your heart and you really feel fully submerged into the pages with Kyra like you’re right there alongside her。 So beautifully written！ I really love the magical world that has been created and the magic system with mythology makes it very interesting and exciting！ I need more！ Can’t wait to read greed & malice which I’m now going to dive into it！！ Highly recommend 5🌟 。。。more

An amazing Prequel that has me impatiently waiting for the rest of what I'm sure will be another epic series by Caroline and Susanne。 Kyra In the space of a few pages has become my new favourite female crush and I can't wait to follow her journey！！！！ An amazing Prequel that has me impatiently waiting for the rest of what I'm sure will be another epic series by Caroline and Susanne。 Kyra In the space of a few pages has become my new favourite female crush and I can't wait to follow her journey！！！！ 。。。more

I tend to have an easier time rating novellas because I go in with more clear cut criteria on what I'm expecting to get from them。 In this case， I was expecting to get the story of what happened to Kyra to change her from who she was to who she will be when we meet her in A Game of Malice and Greed。 More specifically how she got trapped in a coin in the first place！ What I was not expecting was to feel her trauma so viscerally that I ended up crying。 CRYING！ I rarely cry when I read books but th I tend to have an easier time rating novellas because I go in with more clear cut criteria on what I'm expecting to get from them。 In this case， I was expecting to get the story of what happened to Kyra to change her from who she was to who she will be when we meet her in A Game of Malice and Greed。 More specifically how she got trapped in a coin in the first place！ What I was not expecting was to feel her trauma so viscerally that I ended up crying。 CRYING！ I rarely cry when I read books but the twisted sisters have such a talent when it comes to writing and depicting loss that I couldn't help but be overcome with emotion for Kyra and what she experienced。The second half of the book had me wanting to rage alongside Kyra on behalf of her family and later for herself。 Particularly when the Gods were furious at what was being done to her but did nothing to intervene。 I was ready to fight them all and call them out on both their audacity and hypocrisy！ And that final chapter？ Everything was already pretty bad but oh man did that additional caveat add an extra layer of punishment to her imprisonment。 I can't even imagine the emotional turmoil she experienced for the next 1，000 years。 No wonder she loses herself and comes out little twisted in the head。 Can you blame her？！ I am sincerely hoping that part of her journey in the series as a whole involves her taking back her freedom and making peace with her past。 This was an excellent prequel novella that I think will add a new layer of depth and understanding to my reading experience for AGOMAG！ And I can't wait to start because I've already fallen in love with Kyra， the magic system， and the general mythology of this world！ ✨ 。。。more

HERE FOR THE STEAM ，

（4。5⭐️） I managed to snag A Kingdom of Gods and Ruin from The Sisters reader group！ This fun freebie is a prequel novella to their upcoming release， A Game of Malice and Greed。We’re thrown into a fantasy world set 1000 years before AGOMAG， where Fae mix with Gods。 Throw in powers， a greedy emperor， and a splash of revenge and we have a fantastic start to this complex world！

This novella has left me in a state of total wonderment。 These authors have a way of getting me so emotionally invested in the characters and worlds they create。 This was no exception。 I basically felt the happiness， familial love， tears， betrayal， and utter devastation that was written on page。 This world of gods and fae is so intricate and that ending has me highly anticipating A Game of Malice and Greed releasing in March！ Let's just say I have no more nails and tears after reading this。 😭🖤 This novella has left me in a state of total wonderment。 These authors have a way of getting me so emotionally invested in the characters and worlds they create。 This was no exception。 I basically felt the happiness， familial love， tears， betrayal， and utter devastation that was written on page。 This world of gods and fae is so intricate and that ending has me highly anticipating A Game of Malice and Greed releasing in March！ Let's just say I have no more nails and tears after reading this。 😭🖤 。。。more
