A choice between love and loyalty

In this second volume of The Ancestors Saga, Nyriaana belongs to the Ninkuraaja, a spiritual people living in southern forests and threatened by Wove raiders. When she is left to care for an injured member of the group her people consider an enemy, she discovers their fates are bound together. The conflict puts personal attachment against responsibility to a community already close to destruction, with the story framed by the series’ blend of historical fantasy, romance, adventure, and mythology. The setting is presented as a version of humanity’s distant, forgotten past, where the known and the mythic meet.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in historical fantasy set in an imagined distant past.
  • Those drawn to fantasy romance built around divided loyalties and a threatened community.
  • Readers who enjoy stories incorporating mythology and adventure.

Book overview

Love or loyalty? Destiny hangs upon a single choice...

 

Living deep within the mysterious southern forests, the spiritual Ninkuraaja people are being hunted to the brink of extinction by bloodthirsty raiders known only as Woves.

 

Nobody knows better than a Ninkuraa that a Wove deserves only death.

 

But when a twist of fate places the life of an injured Wove into young Nyriaana's hands, she is horrified to discover that the destiny of this most hated enemy is irrevocably tied to hers.

 

As their burgeoning relationship threatens to tear her whole life apart, Nyriaana comes to realise that she must face a terrible choice: sacrifice the Wove or betray the lives of her own dying people.

 

Will Nyriaana find the strength she needs to save her tribe? Or will her love for the Wove ultimately doom them all?
