About the book

Sword and Verse

In a sweeping fantasy that award-winning author Franny Billingsley calls "fascinating and unique," debut author Kathy MacMillan weaves palace intrigue and epic world-building to craft a tale for fans of Rae Carson and Megan Whalen Turner.


Raisa was just a child when she was sold into slavery in the kingdom of Qilara. Before she was taken away, her father had been adamant that she learn to read and write. But where she now lives, literacy is a capital offense for all but the nobility. The written language is closely protected, and only the King, Prince, Tutor, and Tutor-in-training are allowed to learn its very highest form.

So when she is plucked from her menial labor and selected to replace the last Tutor-in-training who was executed, Raisa knows that betraying any hint of her past could mean death.

Keeping her secret guarded is hard enough, but the romance that's been blossoming between her and Prince Mati isn't helping matters. Then Raisa is approached by the Resistance—an underground rebel army—to help liberate the city's slaves. She wants to free her people, but that would mean aiding a war against Mati.

As Raisa struggles with what to do, she discovers a secret that the Qilarites have been hiding for centuries—one that, if uncovered, could bring the kingdom to its knees.


  • Palace Intrigue: As Tutor-in-training to Prince Mati, Raisa walks a knife’s edge. One misstep could expose her secret literacy and lead to her execution.
  • Love Versus Duty: Falling for the prince was never part of the plan. Now, Raisa must choose between her heart and her people as a rebel army forces her to decide where her loyalties truly lie.
  • A World of Secrets and Lies: In a kingdom where reading is a death sentence for slaves, Raisa’s very existence is a crime. But she’s not the only one with something to hide—the entire kingdom is built on a secret that could shatter its foundations.
  • Epic Fantasy for Book Lovers: Perfect for fans of Rae Carson and Megan Whalen Turner, this lush fantasy combines epic world-building with a story that celebrates the power of words.
