Description
Nominated for the Goodreads Choice Award and a Nebula Award, this political fantasy follows Touraine, a soldier stolen as a child and raised to kill and die for a crumbling desert empire. Her company is sent back to her homeland to suppress a rebellion, forcing her to confront the possibility that the ties of blood may be stronger than she believed. Luca, determined to remove her uncle from the throne, needs a turncoat who can balance treason against obedience and persuade the rebels to choose peace. Through assassinations and massacres, bedrooms and war rooms, Touraine and Luca negotiate over the price of a nation, discovering that some things are not for sale. C. L. Clark’s epic debut explores colonial conquest, exploitation, prejudice and revolution through a brutal, complex and deeply human military fantasy filled with rebellion, espionage, shifting loyalties and the lost history of mystical powers.
