Book excerpt: When Zenobia takes control of her own fate, will the gods punish her audacity? Zenobia, the proud daughter of a Syrian sheikh, refuses to marry against her will. She won’t submit to a lifetime of subservience. When her father dies, she sets out on her own, pursuing the power she believes to be her birthright, dreaming of the Roman Empire’s downfall and her ascendance to the throne. Defying her family, Zenobia arranges her own marriage to the most influential man in the city of Palmyra. But their union is anything but peaceful―his other wife begrudges the marriage and the birth of Zenobia’s son, and Zenobia finds herself ever more drawn to her guardsman, Zabdas. As war breaks out, she’s faced with terrible choices. From the decadent halls of Rome to the golden sands of Egypt, Zenobia fights for power, for love, and for her son. But will her hubris draw the wrath of the gods? Will she learn a “woman’s place,” or can she finally stake her claim as Empress of the East? This book was previously published by Lake Union Publishing, from 2015 - 2022.

Book excerpt: “National Velvet with monsters and a big helping of palace intrigue, Race the Sands is monstrous (literally), heartwarming, and empowering in equal measure. An incredibly fun and inspiring read.” – Katherine Arden, New York Times bestselling author of The Bear and the Nightingale In this epic standalone fantasy, the acclaimed author of the Queens of Renthia series introduces an imaginative new world in which a pair of strong and determined women risk their lives battling injustice, corruption, and deadly enemies in their quest to become monster racing champions. Life, death, and rebirth—in Becar, who you are in this life will determine your next life. Yet there is hope—you can change your destiny with the choices you make. But for the darkest individuals, there is no redemption: you come back as a kehok, a monster, and are doomed to be a kehok for the rest of time. Unless you can win the Races. After a celebrated career as an elite kehok rider, Tamra became a professional trainer. Then a tragic accident shattered her confidence, damaged her reputation, and left her nearly broke. Now, she needs the prize money to prevent the local temple from taking her daughter away from her, and that means she must once again find a winning kehok . . . and a rider willing to trust her. Raia is desperate to get away from her domineering family and cruel fiancé. As a kehok rider, she could earn enough to buy her freedom. But she needs a first-rate trainer. Impressed by the inexperienced young woman’s determination, Tamra hires Raia and pairs her with a strange new kehok with the potential to win—if he can be tamed. But in this sport, if you forget you’re riding on the back of a monster, you die. Tamra and Raia will work harder than they ever thought possible to win the deadly Becaran Races—and in the process, discover what makes this particular kehok so special.

Book Synopsis Sea God of the Sands by : Kyrja
Download or read book Sea God of the Sands written by Kyrja. This book was released on 2017-08-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The birth of the heir of Amphedia, the Goddess of the Seas, changed everything some twenty years past, both for those who dwell in the desert, and those who live by the sea. After hundreds of years of sending those young men and women who could feel the water beneath the sands to the city by the sea, in hope of producing Amphedia's heir, the pact between Amphedia , and Giya, the Earth Goddess, has been concluded.Jarles adamantly refuses his role as heir, though, because the life of his father was forfeit as the price of his birth, and his mother was brutally murdered while he was a young boy, by the very same priests who were responsible for ensuring his conception. And yet his world is dying. The abilities of those who can feel the water beneath the sands are diminishing, while he can not only feel it, but can call the water to him - as long as he keeps moving west, across the desert, to Amphedia's city by the sea.Nor can he stop the Goddess of the Seas from dropping him into visions so real he believes he is physically immersed in various bodies of water all over the world. It is during one of these visions that a young woman falls into the sea with him, changing the course of his life - and the plans of the gods who have conspired against him and each other. While Sov, the Sun God, continues to blaze brightly, turning more and more of the planet into desert.The blind Goddess of Air has used an ancient device to see the future, and now must pay the price for using the eyesight of her companion, who once was an owl, to do so.
