A richly crafted debut from a strong new voice in fantasy. Book one in The Orphan’s Code gives us fierce, relatable characters, and a noble quest to root for. You will remember C.R.R. Hillin.
HE CAME FROM NOTHING.
With sheer force of will, Kayo’s brother Liam managed to crawl from the gutters and free himself from parents who treated him like a slave, an orphanage that treated him like a prisoner, and an entire city that turned their backs on him. From nothing, he rose to become a vigilante who brought justice to the corrupt and greedy when no one else would, wielding fire and steel to give everyone, from the city guard to the tyrant king, what they deserved. He stood up for the poor, the outcast, and the downtrodden, and they crowned him as the Beggar’s King.
But now he’s gone. And Kayo, who comes from less than nothing, can’t take his place-even if he wanted to.
Which he doesn’t.
AND SO DID SHE.
She never had a name, or a home, or a family. She never needed one. But then an opportunity falls-literally-into her lap, and a group of outcasts just like her offer her a home. They even give her a name: Rose.
That nameless girl would have robbed them blind and left them to starve or be captured. But Rose...that’s someone new. And as the king cracks down on the city around her, Rose sees a chance to save the legacy of the Beggar’s King and bring back to life the only man the king ever feared.

C.R.R. Hillin (she/they) is from Beaumont, Texas and Austin, Texas, but now lives in Bavaria, Germany, where she pretends she isn't three alligators in a trench coat. Originally pursuing a career in medicine, she took a detour into childcare and social work, got kicked out of therapist school, taught science and ELAR, and then ditched all of that to pick up graphic design and disability/queer advocacy. As a proud AuDHD she picks up skills and hobbies all over the place, usually book-related, and is now proficient at digital art, cover design, graphic design, audio and video editing, video game writing, languages (Spanish, Italian, German, French), Tae Kwon Do, and a dozen different softwares as well as writing. Her toxic trait is painstakingly researching any and all things pre-1600 A.D instead of working and then ditching it all to write fanfic instead. She's destined to die petting something she shouldn't. Probably a polar bear, but her husband's cat Weasel is definitely plotting something.
