Alésia fell two thousand years ago. When the last queen was betrayed and murdered by her own sister.

This book is AMAZING! If you’re looking for high fantasy, high stakes, deep characters, a land filled with danger, war, and history, then you’re in the right spot. Michelle writes amazing stories with fantastic twists and surprises. Kiona is such an amazing FMC. Her story is really deep and woven through each book. A must read fantasy to rival Eragon and Lord of the Rings!
