Early Reviewers

An inescapable fate. A path to survival. A path to freedom.

Magic is restricted for 16-year-old Khora, detection spells doom for her. Born a slave with one singular purpose: bow to the whims of the Mali Empire or get crushed.

But now she's tired of bowing, having every choice taken away. It's time to take it back. Even if it means joining a dying rebellion that will ask more than she's ready to give, with everything on the line she's ready to take on centuries' old dark magic and tyranny with no light at the end.
