Unexpectedly summoned by the King, the grandfather she never knew who renounced her mother before her birth, to the capital city of The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, Yiene Darr finds herself thrust to the forefront of a battle between gods and mortals, good and evil, light and darkness. Not knowing who to trust and burning with the need to discover who murdered her mother and avenge her death, Yiene must navigate her way through court intrigue, dalliances with a child-like god, and encounters with a terrorizing Lord of Darkness. What she discovers within herself and how she acts upon all her newfound knowledge is the basis of a truly wonderful, engaging tale. The first book of a planned trilogy, this story embraced me and has me eagerly looking forward to Book 2!
