Imperatora: Book One

Description

Three women are violently torn from their worlds and thrust into the unforgiving desert kingdom of Al’idris.

Strangers on the same desolate road, they quickly realize their only hope of survival—and finding their way home—is each other.

Ell, a young forester, is haunted by an injury that won’t heal and whispers she can’t ignore. Hellion, a priestess, has lost her god’s voice, leaving her to face the clash between her faith and the kingdom’s worship of the Lady of Life and Death. And Desde, a refined enchantress, must reckon with a harsh truth: every spell she casts drains her life away.

Bound together by fate, the women strike a dangerous deal with the queen of Al’idris. In return for their help uncovering a secret that threatens the kingdom, they may find the answers they seek. But as they navigate clashing personalities, magical dangers, a growing affection and a frightful transformation, each must confront the limits of their strength—and the terrifying truth behind their forced exile.

In a world where nothing is as it seems, answers are only found if one survives its perils.
