Lucha of the Forgotten Spring
by Tehlor Kay Mejia
18 Feb 2025
416 pages
Publisher: Make Me a World
Genre: Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Speculative, Alt. History

Fresh off her triumph in the Night Forest, Lucha Moya is back in Robado to settle unfinished business. The stunning fantasy duology about addiction, power, and love comes to a close in tale of treacherous villains, environmental disaster, and a love triangle its heroine doesn't see coming.

A ruthless monster.
A daring heist.
A heart pulled in two directions.
A long-forgotten myth.

Killing a god was only the beginning of Lucha Moya's story... Her mission is simple—eradicate olvida, the forgetting drug, once and for all. But something sinister is lurking in the Night Forest, eager to claim its prize…

Will Lucha's training allow her to survive the machinations of the Forest and save the vulnerable people at its mercy?

In this page-turning conclusion to this Latine folklore-inspired duology, Lucha must face long-avoided fears to save the people she cares for—or risk losing everything she's fought so hard to obtain.
