Banishment is heart-wrenching... so why choose it?
Cast to the winds, Kala's to-do list is daunting...
- Survive another day... (so far so good)
- Regain her humanity... (easier said than done)
- Track down the “one that got away”... (he's out there)
- Find a way home... (can't give up hope)
- Serve the Goddess of Death... (what the hell?)
- Stop the Apocalypse... (seriously?!?)
How can a girl stop the Apocalypse when she is the Goddess of Death's chosen weapon?
Kala may have a talent for killing, but it won't help her escape what she fears most. As the only contact between the isolated communities of her world, mysterious airships demand a youth in exchange for the goods that each community so desperately needs to survive. If you have to send someone away, you choose a misfit, and Kala has always been at the top of the list.
Kala's trepidation is upended by the arrival of charismatic Skye, who teases a life beyond her village, then is carried away from her on the winds. Kala is thrust into the brutal and unforgiving wider world, where she is enslaved by a lord who desires her talents as his personal assassin. The Church also wants her, believing her to be the prophesied weapon of the Goddess of Death.
Kala just wants to regain her freedom and her humanity, find Skye and a way home, but all of those things seem outside her reach.
With fresh characters and page-turning suspense, this richly imagined fantasy series explores unimaginable choices, the price of a soul, and the power of redemption.
