Diabolical

Red Queen meets The Hunger Games in this fascinating dystopia that has already sold more than 75,000 copies in the United States in just 5 months.

An epic novel about what happens when a young woman genetically designed to be the deadliest weapon in the galaxy must pose as an aristocratic hostage of the imperial court.

A Diabolic is ruthless.
A Diabolic is lethal.
A Diabolic has one purpose:
to kill to protect its owner.

Nemesis is a Diabolic: a lethal weapon in human form. She was created to protect Sidonia, the daughter of a galactic senator. Although they were raised together, Nemesis knows they cannot be friends or equals: her sole purpose is to defend her owner with her life.

When the emperor learns that Sidonia's father is plotting a rebellion, he summons her to court to hold her hostage. There is only one way to protect her: Nemesis must go in her place and impersonate her.

Surrounded by dangers, intrigues, and betrayals, Nemesis must hide who she really is... just as she begins to discover it.

In Nemesis's universe, anything is possible: risk, adventure, danger... even love.

Readers say...
"The book managed to leave me with a very good taste in my mouth. It worked magic on me, I'm not sure how it did it."

"Sublime. It reminds me a lot of trilogies like The Hunger Games or Divergent because of the amount of action, emotion, all the things that happen in the same story and with a great female character.(...) You're going to get hooked a lot, really, it's one of those books that you also can't stop reading."
Javier Ruescas on Youtube

"Among my best reads of the year. It had been a long time since I'd been so taken with a novel. It's 100% addictive and has completely hooked me. [#] A great read: overwhelming, intense and surprising."
Leyna's Corner

"An IMPRESSIVE work. The most perfect crossover I've had the opportunity to read. One of the best stories I've read this year. SIMPLY MAGICAL."

"Sit down... and read. If there's one thing Diabolic has, it's its high addictive power. Once we start reading, it will be very difficult to take the book out of our hands. The mechanical and technological universe in which it takes place is another great success. Perfectly constructed and with every detail thought out to the millimeter, it will make us fully immerse ourselves in the plot and experience what happens with greater intensity."
