EVERY EMPIRE DEMANDS REVOLUTION.
Touraine is a soldier. Stolen as a child and raised to kill and die for the empire, her only loyalty is to her fellow conscripts. But now, her company has been sent back to her homeland to stop a rebellion, and the ties of blood may be stronger than she thought.
Luca needs a turncoat. Someone desperate enough to tiptoe the bayonet's edge between treason and orders. Someone who can sway the rebels toward peace, while Luca focuses on what really matters: getting her uncle off her throne.
Through assassinations and massacres, in bedrooms and war rooms, Touraine and Luca will haggle over the price of a nation. But some things aren't for sale.
In a political fantasy unlike any other, debut author C. L. Clark spins an epic tale of rebellion, espionage, and military might on the far outreaches of a crumbling desert empire.
'Clark's debut introduces a remarkable LGBTQ+ culture amid a story of colonial conquest, exploitation, prejudice, and brewing revolt in a land with a lost history of mystical powers . . . Fans of epic military fantasy will eagerly await more from Clark' Booklist

“And you couldn’t own anything if you were owned yourself.”
I don't know how I ever let this sit on my TBR. An epic, political fantasy in a world where being queer is the norm with a heavy focus on colonialism inspired by real world history. Tourraine, a disgraced soldier from the army of the colonizers, along with her squad of the military is sent to the country she was taken from where they have to fight against the uprising local rebellion against the colonisation. Throw family ties, magic, conflicting feelings and more than one identity crisis in the mix and you'll have this soldier questioning her entire life at once. My personal highlight: The way Tourraine's inner conflict is shown not only through her decisions but also her regrets and doubts. This is a beautiful book and I can't wait to read the next part in the series.
