Overview
The Legendborn Cycle by Tracy Deonn is a young adult fantasy trilogy that reimagines Arthurian legend through a modern, Black girl magic lens. This paperback collection gathers all three novels—Legendborn, Bloodmarked, and Oathbound—delivering the complete arc of Bree Matthews' journey from grieving teenager to powerful Scion and Bloodcrafter. Set at a secretive campus program shadowing a real university, the series blends secret societies, ancestral root magic, and demon-hunting knights with raw honesty about grief, identity, and belonging. This complete set is an ideal gift for fantasy fans, book clubs, and readers ready for unforgettable modern mythology.

About the Books
Across Legendborn, Bloodmarked, and Oathbound, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews stumbles into a hidden world after her mother's sudden death. Enrolled in an early college program, Bree discovers the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur's knights who use old magic to fight demons called Shadowborn. As Bree learns to wield her own inherited root magic, she uncovers buried truths about her mother's death, her ancestry, and the order's long history of erasing Black contributions to its own legend. Tracy Deonn builds a richly layered mythology that fuses Arthurian legend with African American folk magic, campus intrigue, and found-family bonds. Across the trilogy, Bree becomes a Medium, Bloodcrafter, and Scion, growing in power while confronting painful truths about grief, inheritance, and who gets to be a hero. Romantic tension, especially with Nick and Selwyn, deepens alongside high-stakes battles against the Shadow King and his forces. Deonn never lets the fantasy overshadow the emotional core: Bree's grief, her fierce love for her family, and her fight to define herself on her own terms. The result is a trilogy that moves from mystery and discovery in book one, through escalating danger and identity in book two, to a climactic reckoning in book three. Fans of intricate magic systems, mythic reinvention, and heroines who refuse to be erased will find this collection immersive, moving, and impossible to put down from the very first page onward.
