A fugitive warrior faces war, betrayal, and dangerous power
The concluding volume of N. E. Davenport’s sci-fantasy duology places elite warrior Ikenna under pursuit after she exposes her illegal blood-gift. With bounty hunters, former allies, and the Blood Emperor’s forces closing in, her personal crisis unfolds alongside an invasion of Mareen. The conflict widens from survival to a proposed assassination that could end the war at a devastating cost. Ikenna’s struggle to control power granted through blood rites is bound up with broken alliances, revenge, and the oppression enforced by Mareen’s ruling council. The book frames its high-stakes military conflict around the consequences of power, loyalty, and action in the face of annihilation.

Legendborn meets Red Rising in this stunning conclusion to N. E. Davenport's fast-paced, sexy, action-packed sci-fantasy duology. Elite warrior Ikenna and her rogue cohort must outrun bounty hunters, their former comrades, and a megalomaniacal demi-god, all in the hopes of saving their friends and enemies from the racist and misogynistic oppression that threatens the continents from all sides.
After discovering the depth of betrayal, treachery, and violence perpetrated against her by Mareen's Tribunal Council and exposing her illegal blood-gift to save her Praetorian squad, Ikenna becomes a fugitive with a colossal bounty on her head.
Yet, somehow, that's the least of her worries.
Her grandfather's longtime allies refuse to offer help, and the Blood Emperor's Warlord is tracking her. She's also struggling to control the enormous power she was granted by the Goddess of Blood Rites...and come to terms with the promises she made to get such power.
Amidst all of this, the Blood Emperor wages a full-scale invasion against Mareen and leaves a trail of decimated cities, war crimes, and untold death in his wake. As the horrors increase, Ikenna and her team realize they must assassinate the Blood Emperor and quickly end the war. But the price to do so is steep and has planet-shattering consequences.
The price to do nothing, though, is annihilation.
War has erupted. Alliances are fracturing. And Ikenna is torn between her loyalties, her desires for revenge, and the power threatening to consume her. With the world aflame, only one thing is certain: blood will be spilled.
