"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?
