Customer Reviews
Wars, kingdoms,death and betrayals.
Two Kingdoms have been in a state of constant ear for so long, no-one remembers how it even started. One Kingdom, a desert realm is ruled by a long line of kings, men who have little respect for women, the other, a matriarchal society ruled by queens, who pass the reign to a daughter, fathered by a consort, after a period of 25 years. The newly crowned queen declares she will seek peace with their enemy and thus begins a chain of plots, betrayals and assassinations as many of her nobles are invested, in the continuence of hostilities.
