Glister: Furious Queens: Book One
Nine heirs. One fight to the death. There can only be one queen.
"Lovers of the dark, twisted, and magical won't be disappointed!"
Princess Qadira is only thirteen years old when the Allaedam is called to determine the ascendancy to the throne. Forced into a battle for her life and soul with her 8 siblings, she's desperate to find a way out without killing anyone but she's always been a klutz. When she accidentally causes the death of one of her siblings, all sights are turned on her as the most dangerous threat.
With all the heirs coming at her full force, she makes an unexpected ally—a disembodied voice that whispers terrible things and promises her survival and eventual queenship if she releases him from his prison. With death whispering in her ear and tragedies manifesting in everything she touches, Qadira is in a far more serious the one for her soul.
Will she become a monster to be a queen or let herself be killed a princess?
****
The Fires of Qaf historical djinn series consists of standalone epic fantasy romance novels that all tie together in a larger world of magic and djinn fire.
