Blurb
Three
hundred years after a great war shattered the Council of Races, the
warriors of Rüddan have all but eradicated their cousins, the faerie
Aethel. In so doing, they decimated the Dryht sages and enslaved
mortal Humanity. Now a voice rises above the chaos and calls her
people to rebel. Young Sabine, one of the Human slaves, must learn to
overcome centuries of lies and prejudice to forge an alliance between
four enemy races. But what chance does she stand to overthrow the
Rüddan with her dangerous secret, a secret that threatens not only
her own life but the existence of all the races on the planet?
Excerpt
Wiping
a tear from her cheek, Sabine stood on tiptoe again. Three guards
surrounded Mariel now, shearing away jagged clumps of her long black
hair while the captain moved to the front of the dais. “Mariel
Brockselle has been tried and found guilty of magic use and
conspiring with the Dryht. For these treasons, she is hereby
sentenced to death by the Empress of all Kirin Roh. Let this be an
example to any who would emulate her.”
“Treason
and magic use are easy to claim,” Sabine muttered under her breath,
“and almost impossible to disprove. I wonder what she really did.”
