The Forsaken Isles are on the brink of revolution. Three individuals are about to push it over the edge—in this novel by a three-time Nebula Award nominee.
Spaeth Dobrin is destined to life as a ritual healer—but as the dhotamar of the tiny, isolated island of Yora, she will be caught in a perpetual bond between herself and the people she has cured. Is it slavery, or is it love? Meanwhile, Harg, the troubled and rebellious veteran, returns to find his home transformed by conquest. And Nathaway, the well-intentioned imperialist, arrives to teach Spaeth’s people “civilization,” only to become an explorer in the strange realm of the Forsakens.
As a final showdown looms between ancient forces and the new overlords of the land, Spaeth is about to be propelled into a vortex of war, temptation, and—just possibly—freedom.
