Written by Laura Sebastian
When Theodosia was six, her mother, the queen of Australia, was killed in front of her. Since then, her people have been enslaved and she has lived under the cruel rule of the Kaiser. Desperate to save her people, Theo teams up with her old friend, Blaze to bring down the Kaiser and his right-hand man, the Thane. Will she succeed? Action-packed and engaging, the plot is well developed and draws the reader into the story. The main characters are complex and easy to relate to. Fantasy elements are blended well into the story. Although the supporting cast is a little under developed, fans of Hunger Games, The Selection, and dark fantasy with some romance will enjoy reading this book
