About this listen

To cage a god is divine. To be divine is to rule. To rule is to destroy.

Using ancient secrets, Galina and Sera’s mother grafted gods into their bones. Bound to brutal deities and granted forbidden power no commoner has held in a millennia; the sisters have grown up to become living weapons. Raised to overthrow an empire – no matter the cost.

With their mother gone and their country on the brink of war, it falls to the sisters to take the helm of the rebellion and end the cruel reign of a royal family possessed by destructive gods. Because when the ruling alurea invade, they conquer with fire and blood. And when they clash, common folk burn.

While Sera reunites with her estranged lover who now leads the rebellion, Galina infiltrates the palace. In this world of deception and danger, her only refuge is an isolated princess, whose whip-smart tongue and sharp gaze threaten to uncover Galina’s secret. Torn between desire and duty, Galina must make a choice: work together to expose the lies of the empire—or bring it all down.

Critic reviews

'The action and violence enhance the strife of ruling political power and revolution and keeps the pace fast and lively.' (Library Journal, starred review)
'May’s mythology of dragon gods imprisoned in human host bodies is an effective magical system, and this series opener delivers on not just epic fantasy, but epic action and romance as well.' (Kirkus Reviews)
'Romance and rebellion define this exquisite novel, which sinks its claws in and won’t let go … a tour de force of romantasy writing, full of fire and ice, passion and revolution. Elizabeth May is back with a bang.' (Hannah Kaner, author of Sunday Times bestseller Godkiller)
'A bloody, political romantasy about two sisters who are raised to be living weapons, it's a story that's grounded in sacrifice and family bonds.' (Paste Magazine)
