Description
"The authors offer a huge array of elements that contribute to a fully textured world that feels immersive and alive. We are brought into a complex society shaped by history, politics, art, and complete disparity of wealth and power, with no greater example than at a wedding where the economic prowess of the Volloch lords is on full display." -Readers Favorite
The tyranny of the Vollen Empire is written in the scars on Tove's face. But a chance encounter with Brie, a Desulti assassin, awakens a hunger in Tove. She'd seen Brie fight. The Desulti was a small woman, like Tove, but Tove doubted Brie ever felt small. Not like Tove did. When Brie offers her a chance to be the first Alle'oss woman to join the Desulti, she can't believe her luck. But the secretive order of women is not the haven she expects. Can Tove find what she seeks, or is she a pawn in a scheme that could end her life and destroy the Alle'oss rebellion?

"The journey embraces women's empowerment and struggles, and is especially highly recommended for fantasy fans that appreciate a winning blend of sweeping world-building description, epic events, manipulation, and proactive female characters whose growth is at the heart of all experiences." -Midwest Book Review
"This story is more than just epic fantasy. It's a powerful exploration of women's rights and the fight for independence, which is intricately woven through the plot, making it all the more impactful." -Sublime Book Review
"The world has a 'lived in feel' that is so difficult to accomplish in fantasy stories without overwhelming the readers. Tove is an incredibly charismatic character who is a joy to follow through her trials and tribulations and the romance that builds between her and another Desulti is one of the sweetest and most nature relationship that I have read in recent years." -Reedsy Discovery
