About the Prince of Sin series

Set in the same demon-court world as Kerri Maniscalco's Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy, Prince of Sin steps away from Emilia and Wrath to give each of the seven Princes of Hell his own book and his own dangerous romance. Throne of the Fallen opens the spinoff with a fresh heroine and a new prince, trading Emilia's revenge-driven arc for a stand-alone story that still trades in the same sensory, food-and-magic-soaked world of Hell's court politics.

Marketed as Maniscalco's adult-romantasy debut (spicier and more explicit than the Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy's young-adult register), the series keeps the morally grey demon love interests and lush worldbuilding that made the original trilogy a hit, while giving each entry a different pairing and a more standalone structure than Kingdom of the Wicked's single continuous plot.

For readers who finished Kingdom of the Wicked wanting more time in Hell's court -- with new romances, new princes, and a higher heat level -- this is the direct follow-on series.

How to read this series

Read Kingdom of the Wicked first -- Prince of Sin is set in the same world and assumes familiarity with its demon-court politics and mythology, even though each Prince of Sin book centers a different couple. Within the spinoff itself, read in publication order starting with Throne of the Fallen; later entries build on worldbuilding and court politics established in the one before.

This is marketed as an adult series, noticeably more explicit than the YA-register Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy that precedes it.

What order should I read Prince of Sin in?

Publication order: Throne of the Fallen, then Throne of Secrets. Read Kingdom of the Wicked first, since Prince of Sin is set in the same world.

Is Prince of Sin connected to Kingdom of the Wicked?

Yes, it's set in the same demon-court world, following different Princes of Hell and their own romances rather than continuing Emilia and Wrath's story directly.

Is Prince of Sin finished?

No, it's ongoing. A further entry has been discussed by the author but had no confirmed title or release date as of this curation (August 2026).

Is Prince of Sin appropriate for Kingdom of the Wicked's YA readers?
