Dawn

by Dan O'Brien

The world is divided between a nation of men and a nation women, each of whom rules with absolute authority. A war brews deep beneath the surface of the peaceful negotiations between these two nations as a love blossoms between a princess and her guardian, a slave of the Society of Dawn, in the first entry of this romantic fantasy series.

If you love strong female characters and a sweeping fantasy story, then you will want to pick this book up.

About the author

Librarian Note: There is more than one author by this name in the Goodreads database.

I have been writing novels for over a decade and had a couple published by traditional, small houses. Riding the self-publishing boom, I have four books in print that are available in paperback or e-book format. If you are interested in reading them, I am always open to sending out samples (or PDFs) to those who are interested.

I was born on the east coast and spent most of my life moving around. I recently settled into California where I am a graduate student in Experimental Psychology. I was a fitness trainer and am a lifelong student of martial arts. I write a little bit of everything and have lately been focusing on a few new novels, continuing some series and embarking on a screenplay binge.

Hope to hear from other avid readers and novelists out there.

Reviews

[Billy Dominguez · Rating 4 out of 5]

Dawn is a good balance of politics and fantasy in a world where, after a war, a territory ruled by females is at odds with a territory dominated by men. A collared servant/guardian and his elite owner fall in love with each other and they are shunned in her territory. The story was a good balance of romance, action, and introduction of side characters. Ends with a cliff hanger ending though so i'm expecting a sequel in the near future.
