They raised her as an assassin … she became something far worse.
Within the depths of the Mountain of Souls, an ancient sect raises orphans to become remorseless assassins.
Abandoned by an empire ravaged by war, hundreds die during selection, leaving a determined, bloodied few, honed by blade and enchantment, to emerge as The Chosen - an elite cohort tasked with delivering an ancient prophecy.
Malina is one of those orphans.
Cursed with yellow eyes and deathly pale skin, she is neither popular nor strong and appears certain to die on her first day, twisted and broken like so many before her.
Fate, however, has other, far more sinister plans for Malina than a quick death ...
… and the world will soon come to curse her name.
Perfect for readers who enjoy dark fantasy with brutal trials, morally grey characters, epic twists, unpredictable arcs, and a heroine forged in blood.
