(Book II, The Guardian Circle)
When Amaya wakes, with only the memory of her world’s apocalyptic
destruction, she is surprised to find herself alone in a world
deceptively similar to her own. But there’s so much about Zerah that’s
changed. The Holy Grounds are gone. The Temple is destroyed. And all
that remains of their ancient society is a vast, barren space.
Lost and confused, Amaya is forced underground into the dark heart of
the neighboring province, hiding out among the monsters – unnatural
products of their Maker. She loses all control of her empathic power,
spiraling toward madness, until Phoenix finds and saves her. Together
they work to build the semblance of a normal life, but he wants more
than she’s prepared to give, and try as she might to forget, she’s still
haunted by memories of a man she was never meant to love.
Torn between her fear and her need to be redeemed, Amaya seeks out the
very person she’s been running from. He presents a tempting offer: he
will free her of the Mark that enslaves her to the Guardianship, a Mark
that carries only ghosts of a past better forgotten, and give her a
chance at a new life.
What a cool cover! Thanks for sharing this--I hadn't heard of it before now. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, that cover rocks! Interesting premise.
