![]() ![]() With a cast of characters to rival the Game of Thrones, this well-written tale is well worth reading. She learns not only how to survive but to prosper, but her rise to power comes with difficult ethical dilemmas as she seeks to exact the ultimate price from those who destroyed her family and her country. The family that has nurtured her through childhood, a family with a mother and two fathers, is about to dissolve under the strictures imposed by new rulers. The small agrarian country in which she lives is being overtaken economically, culturally and militarily by the forces of a dominant empire. The opening chapters drew me immediately into the life of a young girl’s struggle to understand the world around her. ![]() ![]() ![]()
