Fearful

Lauren Roberts

Book 3.5 of The Powerless Trilogy

Fearful is a companion novella set during the timeline of Fearless, told from the perspective of Mara, the personification of Death, as she lingers in the kingdom of Ilya to observe King Kitt Azer in his final days. Rather than following the trilogy's central couple, it offers an outside look at Kitt's guilt, duty, and unraveling, along with the people sworn to protect him. The tone is quieter and more introspective than the main trilogy, leaning into themes of mortality, grief, and the price love exacts.
