β¦ Synopsis
Under the rule of a usurper king, the realm of Skala has suffered famine, plague, and invasion. But now the time for the rightful heir has come, a return to the tradition of warrior queens. And the Lightbearer's prophecy is to be upheld at last: so long as a daughter of the royal line defends and rules, Skala will never be subjugated.
Now a mystical fire has burned away the male body known as Prince Tobin, revealing Princess TamΓr, a girl on the verge of womanhood--and a queen ready to claim her birthright after a life in disguise under the protection of wizards and witches. But will her people, her army--and the friends she was forced to deceive--accept her? Worse, will the crown's rival heir, friend to Tobin, turn foe to TamΓr, igniting civil war in a fierce
battle for Skala?
