Book Description:
“It frightens me, knowing the One
has called up two such strong individuals. It means that there are troubled
times in our future, and you must prepare yourselves.”
The Temple at Illian is the crown jewel
of life in the Northern Territory. There, pledges are paired with feli, the
giant sacred cats of the One god, and are instructed to serve the One’s four
capricious deities. Yet Sulis, a young woman from the Southern Desert, has a
different perspective – one that just might be considered heresy…
Sulis’s twin Kadar, meanwhile, is part
of a different revolution. When Kadar falls in love with a woman from a
Forsaken caste, he finds he’s willing to risk anything to get her people to
freedom. But with Sulis drawing a dangerous level of attention from the
deities, and war about to break out on two fronts, change may not come as
easily as either twin had hoped.
An astonishing debut, Kelley Grant
brings to life a powerful new epic fantasy tale of determination and
self-discovery.
