In the underground Fae realm, only the strongest and most ruthless have power-but a young human woman forced into a life of servitude is about to change everything.
Kenna Heron is best known in her village for being a little wild-some say “half feral”–but she’ll need every ounce of that ferocity to survive captivity in the cruel Fae court.
Trapped as a servant in the faeries’ underground kingdom of Mistei, Kenna must help her new mistress undertake six deadly trials, one for each branch of magic: Fire, Earth, Light, Void, Illusion, and Blood. If she succeeds, her mistress will gain immortality and become the heir to Earth House. If she doesn’t, the punishment is death-for both mistress and servant.
With no ally but a sentient dagger of mysterious origins, Kenna must face monsters, magic, and grueling physical tests. But worse dangers wait underground, and soon Kenna gets caught up in a secret rebellion against the inventively sadistic faerie king. When her feelings for the rebellion’s leader turn passionate, Kenna must decide if she’s willing to risk her life for a better world and a chance at happiness.
Surviving the trials and overthrowing a tyrant king will take cunning, courage, and an iron will… but even that may not be enough.

Servant of Earth is a darkly enchanting page-turner laden with sensuality and intrigue. Sarah Hawley's haunting prose deftly guides readers through twist after heartstopping twist in a world as dangerous as it is richly built, featuring fascinatingly complex characters and the more sinister side of magic - and of love. I could not put this down.
Sarah Hawley is a must-read author for me, and Servant of Earth cements this. A thrilling, wonderfully unique fae fantasy led by a fierce heroine, it's a powerful and gripping read that will leave you hooked. Fans of Sarah J. Maas will absolutely love it!
Hawley's romantasy debut is a stunner. Fun, fresh, and fantastical, this page-turning delight is a guaranteed binge read with a firecracker heroine at its centre
