From NYT bestselling author Rachel Gillig comes the next big romantasy sensation, a gothic, mist-cloaked tale of a young prophetess who is forced on an impossible quest with the one infuriating knight whose future is beyond her sight. Perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout and Leigh Bardugo.

Sybil Delling has spent nine years dreaming of having no dreams at all. Like the other foundling girls who traded a decade of service for a home in the great cathedral, Sybil is a Diviner. In her dreams she receives visions from six unearthly figures known as Omens. From them, she can predict terrible things before they occur, and lords and common folk alike travel across the kingdom of Traum’s windswept moors to learn their futures by her dreams.

Just as she and her sister Diviners near the end of their service, a mysterious knight arrives at the cathedral. Rude, heretical, and devilishly handsome, the knight Rodrick has no respect for Sybil's visions. But when Sybil's fellow Diviners begin to vanish one by one, she has no choice but to seek his help in finding them. For the world outside the cathedral’s cloister is wrought with peril. Only the gods have the answers she is seeking, and as much as she'd rather avoid Rodrick's dark eyes and sharp tongue, only a heretic can defeat a god.

"I’m obsessed with Rachel Gillig. The Knight and the Moth is achingly romantic, richly imagined, and told with a gossamer delicacy that keeps the pages flying."
Hannah Whitten, author of The Foxglove King
"With the headiness of dreams and the darkness of haunted abbeys, The Knight and the Moth is a dazzlingly transportive tale of love, salvation, and freedom that cements Gillig as one of the finest fantasy writers of our age. You will never want to surface from these enchanting, depthless waters."
Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning
“A gothic, romantic fairytale that feels like falling into a dark, strange dream — one you won’t want to wake from. With twisty parables, monstrous divinities, a slow-burn romance and magic with a deadly cost, the story of The Knight and the Moth unfolds like peeling back a gossamer shroud. Gillig has done it again — I’m obsessed.”
Amélie Wen Zhao, New York Times bestselling author of Song of Silver, Flame Like Night
“The queen of Gothic romantasy returns! The Knight and the Moth is as dangerous as it is whimsical, and entirely unputdownable.”
Allison Saft, author of A Dark and Drowning Tide
"The Knight and the Moth delivers pure joy--gargoyles! gods! girls in armor!--alongside a serious examination of faith, fealty, and the powers they serve. It's a fairy tale with bruised knuckles, perfectly balanced between the mythic and the desperately human. Simply stunning."
Alix E. Harrow, author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January
"Dreamy prose, characters so vibrant they breathe on the page, a romance that smolders, and a spellbinding world to get lost in…The Knight and the Moth is one of the best books I’ve read this year. Prepare to meet your next obsession."
Rebecca Ross, author of Divine Rivals
"The Knight and the Moth is a lavender-drenched dream. Transportive and pacy, Gillig delivers sparkling romantic tension, eerie atmosphere, and the most unique, endearing characters I’ve read in a long while. The signs are clear—readers won’t be able to put down this adventurous, dark gem of a book."
Kalie Cassidy, author of In the Veins of the Drowning
Brimming with beguiling prose, and a dangerous magical world, The Knight and the Moth sparkles with wit and a slow burn romance that left me breathless and impatient for the next installment. Rachel Gillig wrote a gorgeous tale I won’t ever shut up about.
Isabel Ibanez, #1 New York Times bestselling author
