The Fifth Glass

A crack in the goblet lets the light in...

In a kingdom where magic flows like wine through silver goblets, servant Corin knows his place: pour, bow, disappear. For generations, enchanted drinks have bound nobles to power and servants to silence, maintaining a perfect order where memories can be erased with a toast.

But when Corin accidentally drinks from the mysterious Fifth Glass—a vessel meant only for those born to rule—he absorbs forbidden memories and magic that no servant should possess. Now hunted by the Royal Enchanter Velleren, Corin finds an unlikely ally in Lady Thena Caelith, an exiled noblewoman with dangerous knowledge of her own.

As Corin's stolen memories begin to unravel the kingdom's darkest secrets, he discovers the true cost of the nobility's power: countless servants erased from history, their identities sacrificed to maintain the magical hierarchy. With palace Mirror Agents closing in, Corin and Thena must use their forbidden connection to spark a rebellion of remembrance before Velleren can rewrite them both out of existence.

In this spellbinding tale of magic and memory, the most dangerous power isn't found in enchanted goblets, but in those brave enough to remember what others were forced to forget.

Perfect for fans of V.E. Schwab's Shades of Magic series and Samantha Shannon's The Priory of the Orange Tree.
