Book blurb
Nerana is a sorceress born in a world where magic is forbidden. Outcast, exiled, and hunted since birth, she seeks to free herself of a curse that ties her to the Order of Saro who relentlessly hunt her down.
Her hope now lies in a legend from the time of the elves that speaks of the Trials of Blood, a test that promises salvation. Darkness gathers, and the hunters close in on their prey, but with little left to lose Nerana embarks on her perilous journey and soon learns that the path to redemption may prove more fatal than the Order itself.
But for Nerana, this is more than a quest for survival… it’s a promise of revenge.

Bonus
I’m giving you a sneak peek to some bonus content you can find in the book. Here are the tenets of the Order of Saro, the one Nerana, the MC, is running away from; and the tenets of the Broken Order Brotherhood, a faction that opposes what the Order of Saro stands for.


I didn’t have the fortune to get this book on either round so I can’t say much about it, but just to prove how excited I am to read this series, I’ll confess that I’ve bought (or preordered) every book already.
