Publisher Description
The invitation to join the secretive Guadel should have been the fulfillment of dreams Va'del didn't even realize he had. When his sponsors are killed in an ambush a short time later, he instead finds his probationary status revoked, and becomes a pawn between various factions inside the Guadel ruling body.
Jain's never known any life but that of a Guadel in training. She'd thought herself reconciled to the idea of a loveless marriage for the good of her people, but meeting Va'del changes everything. Their growing attraction flies against hundreds of years of precedent, but as wide-spread attacks threaten their world, the Guadel have no choice but to use even Jain and Va'del in their fight for survival.

Customer Reviews
Detailed world building
This story has a well-constructed world and interesting groups of characters, although some of the aggressive personalities do seem to be one dimensional. However, the main character arouses sympathy for him and that allegiance grows with the unjustifiable pressures and prejudices that he faces. It’s a good book, with intriguing hints of further developments in both the physical settings and the growth of the main characters. It’s worth reading, so enjoy it!
Chronicle Books
Excellent books all characters have great depth . After reading a few chapters I found myself linked to their unfolding story. Cheering in the background when they over came each problem and tragedy put before them.
Thank you for such a fast paced and enjoyable set of books. Brilliant ! ! !
