A violent coup, a cryptic prophecy, and a woman who escaped the notice of a god.

Queen Kamia's script is infallible, divinely guided by the omniscient wisdom of her god. Every word comes to pass, from the massacre that claims the life of the king, the fate of her children after the Kingdom's fall, the betrayal of loved ones, and even her own demise. The bloodthirsty usurper who led the coup is prophesied to be the Kingdom's next sovereign, with the script declaring that no one will be left to challenge her rise to power. It seems that this is yet another accurate prediction.

However, there is one person whom the prophecy failed to account for: Joohyun. An inconsequential thief with a penchant for making chaos work in her favour, and whose presence alone has the potential to unravel the prophecy.

Ne'er-do-wells is a captivating high fantasy debut about finding community and rejecting the imposition of 'destiny'. The world of Ne'er-do-wells is rife with rich, thrilling adventure, intricate shenanigans, lush worldbuilding, and slow burn queer romance.
