The Reflections of Us, The Halves of Us Trilogy

Fans of Sarah J. Maas’ House of Earth and Blood will devour the second installment of The Halves of Us Trilogy as the story of the destined sisters grows more complicated, deadlier, and with higher stakes than ever before.

There will not be one, but two. The eldest will bring destruction upon her first breath. For by the sixteenth year she grew, the only salvation for Thindoral is death.

Sixteen years have passed since the fateful night the portal was opened. Adie has grown up on Earth, plagued with nightmares and knowing nothing of her home planet, Thindoral. That changes when she is confronted by a stranger called Auralee, who claims to be her twin sister. Her revelation thrusts Adie into a world overtaken by unimaginable evil, as she’s flooded with memories of a lifetime she never lived.

Aura has taken over Thindoral and controls the shapeshifting Sights, forcing those who survived into hiding. Darkness clouds Aura’s mind and fuels her thirst for vengeance. She has raised her younger self, Auralee, as her own. But Auralee has her own agenda, and if that means defying Aura, then so be it.

After making a deal with the enemy of her enemy, Adie faces off in a battle with Aura and realizes accepting her fate may be the only way to rebalance the worlds’ colliding timelines and save everything she holds dear. Yet Aura’s vow to make them all suffer a fate as wicked as her own now teeters as she discovers another force at play, one that she didn’t see coming.

Even her own darkness cannot be trusted…

Sydney Paige Richardson

Even before Sydney could hold a pencil in her hand, she was making up stories in her head. Richardson wrote her first book in the second grade, Girls, about her best friends and herself in college [because college was super cool when you were 8] who went on treasure hunts and fought bad guys with their super powers. Richardson's second grade teacher was so impressed, she laminated a cover and bound it. That will forever be the moment Richardson dreamed of holding a copy of her own book and placing it on a shelf. All grown up, Richardson's head still stays in the fantasy world, fashioning worlds where the power of a star can be harnessed and used for time travel, flying is just as easy as walking here on earth – and her best friends are fairies. Her characters are dark and lost individuals, but readers' love for them will grow when they realize not everything is black and white. Richardson is represented by Rebecca Angus at Golden Wheat Literary.
