Twenty-year-old Althea is a slave fighter in Coralis. Her exceptional skill at fighting is the only thing keeping her and her found family from death by starvation. One night her world is turned upside down when tragedy strikes. Now she must journey to Laranthiel, a land of immortals, and navigate courtly intrigue and mysterious magical factions to save her family from the clutches of an evil overlord.
Everyone she meets in Laranthiel has a hidden agenda and nothing is as it seems. So when Althea encounters Zevriel, a shadowy warrior who challenges everything she’s been told, can she trust him, or will he betray her for his own gain?
This first book in a new thrilling high fantasy series transports readers to a world of magical beasts, powerful kings, and a terrifying Darkness that threatens to tear worlds apart.
